How do you repel eastern garter snakes?

To repel eastern garter snakes, you can create an environment that is less appealing to them. This includes keeping your yard free of tall grass, brush, and debris where snakes can hide, and sealing any gaps in structures. Additionally, using natural repellents like strong-smelling substances such as garlic, cinnamon, or essential oils may deter them. However, remember that snakes play an important role in the ecosystem, so consider non-lethal methods to manage their presence.
