Bull Snake in Camper Sub-floor. Need removal Suggestions

[Tmag]

If I'm seeing this right in my feeble little brain......the critter should be confined to an area between two cross members, and that area should be closed off on the bottom with thin plastic.......like 1/8" thick. Is that accurate at all?


If so, I'd get under there and push up on that plastic (it should give) and possibly you can locate him that way, and get him moving toward the hole he came in. Or cut another hole underneath him.

I like the ammonia idea too, lots of it.

I keep getting this when I think about cutting him out of the plastic.

There are 2 layers of plastic .....with about an inch of air space between them..... think the snake is above both layers because the hole it went into was evidently cut for the brake lines to come down to the wheels.......cannot tell anywhere where the plastic is pushing down from its weight. But, the double layer makes the plastic stronger than what is on most trailors. There are also some "cut outs" in some of the cross members for plumbing lines, trailer lines etc......I don't know where these are and don't know how much of the sub-floor area the snake has access to. I am hesitating to tear out any of the plastic right now until I see if some of the other "fixes" might work. I am going to try the amonia if the Peppermint does not work. And, the air conditioner is still running.

Hook up to it and drive around the block. That will get it moving.

Go to petco and buy a little mouse, then tie him up right by the hole he went in. Attach a hook with a rubber band to mouse and go fishing.

lol

Tease him out with a Heifer snake.

Lol! That's great!

Why do I get the feeling this thread may turn out to be an all time classic before it is all said and done?
