I have an issue with garter snakes invading my FHM pond and hauling out many, many, many adult FHM.
If I throw a baited trap in and wait an hour I can pull trap out and have 4-6-8-10 drown snakes in it but quite a few regurgitated minnows as well.. This is the only pond I have issues with snakes-guessing a predator thing.
I hate trapping that many adults (removed from spawning process) to catch snakes, but maybe that's what I need to keep doing. I was wondering about putting 2-3 Male Tilapia in there to snip the snakes to maybe deter them. I know they will eat a few minnows but I'm also feeding pellets twice a day there.
Any grand ideas?
