Snake bite question

[Reinz]

I wouldn't POUR Listerine into a snake's mouth. The risk of them getting it into their lungs is far too great. Can't imagine that swallowing it would be good for them either. If you're going to use it, it should be in a squirt bottle and simply misted at their face. Even that, I would save for something more intimidating and damaging than a simple ball python.

First of all I did NOT say pour Listerine INTO the snake's mouth.

I said I said ON. I should have been more clear and said splash it on the site.

And the idea of getting it in the lungs is very doubtful. Also, Listerine is harmless to humans if we swallow it. So a little is not you to hurt the snake.

Also got the information from Brian on Smake Bytes TV, which I should have posted. I just thought it was common knowledge. And snakes are his business.
If I recall, he said it works pretty much every time. Whereas he reported even putting the snake under the faucet (hmmm, no lung trauma) only works less than half of the time.
He also uses it for the giant snakes.

I do like your idea of mist bottle.
