My uncle, who has ten years of experience in raising snakes, told me that snakes are not as afraid of realgar as they are on TV, which means that realgar does not cause any harm to the snake at all. But even if the snake is stuck in one of these things, it will peel off even if it does not die.
In summer, it is the most frequent season for snakes to move, because after a winter hibernation, they are already hungry and urgently need to find food to fill their stomachs. So in summer, it is easy to encounter snakes outdoors.
plus snakes are now national protected animals . Humans cannot easily harm them. In addition, the ecological environment is getting better and better, so their range of activities has become larger and larger, and sometimes there are traces of snakes in the homes where humans live.
I believe most people have a fear of cold-blooded animals such as snakes, so when they encounter snakes, they always avoid them. In order to prevent it from crawling into its own home, humans have also come up with various methods. Next, let’s talk about what snakes are afraid of?
Does realgar drive away the snake?
Many years ago, in order to test whether realgar has a driving effect on snakes, two popular science programs "Is it true" and "Science Seeking Truth" conducted a similar experiment respectively. They prepared three snakes that had been hungry for a few days, including venomous and non-toxic.
Then put them all in a container, partition them with realgar powder in the middle of the container, and on the other end of the container are a few small white mouse . I thought the snake would be afraid of realgar and dare not eat the guinea pig, but I didn't expect that they rushed over and ate the guinea pig.
And when they rushed towards the mouse, their skin was covered with realgar powder, but they did not suffer any damage. From this we can conclude that realgar powder has no preventive effect on snakes at all.
There is such a scene in the TV series " New Legend of White Snake ". During the Dragon Boat Festival, Xu Xian was deceived by the evil people, so he tricked Bai Snake into drinking realgar wine . Unexpectedly, Bai Snake showed his true body after drinking realgar wine, which scared Xu Xian to death.
In fact, this kind of TV series is just deified, because in reality, the harm caused by realgar to snakes can be ignored. Not to mention that White Snake, who has a thousand-year-old Taoist practice, will show his true form after drinking a few sips of realgar wine, which is purely fictional.
analyzes from another perspective. Since realgar cannot prevent snakes, what can I do to prevent them? What are the things that scare it? Let’s share it together next.
Category 1: Chemical items
1, paraquat : paraquat is a pesticide and is relatively common in rural areas. Its main function is to use it for weeding. As long as you spray some water containing Herb Valley in the grass, the grass will quickly wither and yellow and eventually die completely. The reason why humans like to use paraquat so much is because paraquat has a strong herbicidal effect.
And it is not easy to grow grass in places where paraquat sprays. It is really a good helper for human weeding. Because paraquat is very corrosive and its smell is very strong and pungent, it also plays a strong preventive role in snakes. As long as there is a place where paraquat is present, I believe the snake dare not approach it easily. Once their skin gets a little bit, it will rot.
2, DDT : DT is an organic compound abbreviated (dioxyethylene) and is an insecticidal drug with strong toxicity. It has strong lethality against pests such as mosquitoes and flies. Only a slight dose is needed, and these fears will die. Because DDT is strong in drug properties, even if a person accidentally eats it, he will die if he does not receive timely rescue.
plus DDT has a very strong smell and lasts for a long time, which also plays a very important role in preventing snakes. We just need to add some clean water and spray it around our home so that the snake will not dare to approach it easily.Because snakes move forward by catching odor molecules in the air, if they inhale this gas for a long time, let alone snakes, even people will not be able to bear it.
Category 2: Plants
1, Marigold : Wanshou Chrysanthemum is a plant introduced from Mexican in my country. Its petals are mainly orange. When it blooms, the smell is relatively fragrant. But this fragrant smell will make them feel very uncomfortable for snakes, so they will not easily get close to the places where there are marigolds.
2, July One Flower : The name of July One Flower is named according to its branch and leaf shape, because it has seven leaves on one branch and leaf, so it is called July One Flower. Since July 1 flower emits a scent similar to sulfur , it also has an impact on snakes, so in rural areas, many people will plant several July 1 flower around the house in order to prevent snakes from crawling into the yard.
3, Wangjiangnan : Wangjiangnan has a very domineering name, as if they were born specifically to restrain snakes . Another name is "Snake Demon", which also emits a scent similar to sulfur, which also drives away snakes. In addition, it is really good to see that Jiangnan can also treat snake injuries.
4, Impotence : Impotence as an ornamental plant, they are all in the green belts of the city. Since the flowers and branches of the Impatiens will emit the smell of sulfur, it also has a strong driving effect on the snake. In addition, the juice of the Immortal Flower is poisonous, and as long as the snake's skin is stained, it will inevitably be damaged.
Category 3: Animal
1, Big goose : As one of the four rural tyrants, the goose is very aggressive. Sometimes when you see people passing by it, it will rush forward and peck it a few times. Moreover, the goose's feces are corrosive to snakes, so when snakes encounter gooses, they basically only have to escape. In addition, the goose has its own sense of territory, so it is naturally not easy to talk to when they see others breaking into their territory.
2, Flat-headed brother honey badger: Because honey badger is born with anti-toxic functions, and they like to be aggressive and like to eat snakes, snakes basically have one end when they encounter them, that is, they become the spicy strips of honey badgers. Even the ferocious King Cobra , when they encounter honey badgers, they can only escape.
3. Eagle: is one of the most natural enemies of snakes, and eagles are also extremely ferocious. As long as they find snakes on the ground, they will dive down, grab the snake with their sharp claws, and drag it down into the sky, so that the snake will be thrown to death and eventually become a delicious meal in the eagle's belly.
Conclusion
Although snakes look very scary, there are still many things that scare them. This is the law of nature. All things are mutually generated and restrained, and no matter who they are, they will have natural enemies. Even if humans have natural enemies, the natural enemies of human beings are nature, so we must protect nature, otherwise when they take revenge, human beings will face great disasters.
