[QUOTE="Booney, post: 585099, member: 13800"] Although living rurally close to state and national parks we have only had 4 snakes that we know about visit our home over the 35 years at this property . A red belly black ,a brown and two tigers . The last one a meter long tiger Somehow got into our downstairs laundry scarring the bejeasus out of Mrs Booney . Although we like to live and let live I draw a line on snakes entering our home and right or wrong they get the long handle spade . Out prospecting I have only ever seen one brown which I stumbled open under a log in Maryborough. I have a theory not sure if its true or not about pulse induction detectors putting signal into the ground and alerting and snake of our presence. This is based on the lack of sightings by detectorists although there are many of us roaming around the bush . Of course bashing and crashing and scrubbing of coils may well also help. Interestingly there have been a few sightings of 4 to 5 foot lace monitors roaming through propertys in the area. I have not ever seen one for myself but the sightings have been happening for many years . Would be awesome to see one . :cool: [/QUOTE]
