How does one repel garter snakes from around their house?

Asked by evelyns_pet_zebra (12923points) August 21st, 2009

A friend has built a new deck and the garter snakes are still invading his yard even after he removed the long grass they used to inhabit.

He lives in a fairly dry location, so there are no swampy grounds or wet marshy places for them to inhabit nearby. Garter snakes are members of the water snake family and like places that are moist.

He asked me to find out a good way to keep them from coming back, so I decided that perhaps someone on Fluther would have an idea or two that he could try.
