Harmless snake de-latching techniques??

[BFT12890]

i have also heard to run tap water over their head

is there a snake latched onto you right now?

Haha no, but tonight is feeding night. I was thinking about it at work today so I figured id ask incase im ever in that situation

It depends on the snake. Obviously a fully grown retic bite would be more of a concern than a Ball. If it's a Ball, just wait it out. They'll release you eventually and push the head forward a little when they do start to release to prevent the rear facing teeth from coming out.

For large snakes, I've heard of a number of different techniques such as running their head under hot/cold water, spraying alcohol on their head, and even bending their tails. Fortunately, I've never been in that situation so I couldn't tell you which one is the most effective method.

Haha Im hoping im never in that situation either. I hope I never have to expirience a full grown retic or burm bite haha. thanks for your input!
