As soon as we notice the cobra caught in the trap, we'll begin to throw stones in the nearby bushes and the mate would make moves.
We then kill that one first before the trapped one.



Sense nor go kill una grin cool
You can say that again 😂😂😂😂
There have been incidents of such attacks by the cobra so we already have that information form our parents.
During our early years of going hunting, we usually receive a lot of advice from older folks on what to do and what not to do.
They only stopped reminding us when they were certain we have got used to everything.

Cook two to three eggs and put it in the poultry cage , once the snake is able to swallow one of the cooked eggs, it's either you meet the snake around the house powerless or the snake vanish from the house

I don't even know the reason why that specie of animal was spared,even after been used the devil to deceive Eve.

I am always happy,when their heads are bruised,there is nothing good cohabiting with the animal called snake.
so at your age you still believe that snake deceived woman that caused the sufferings on planet earth.



Wake up,snake is just one of the creatures on earth.
If I ask you which species of snake decieved mankind,you certainly have no idea.
So for the last time Wake up

Who knack Golf put for snake?
Them want the snake to get Intestinal obstruction?
Yeah. It's a ploy. As soon as the snake swallows it, it is finished. The golf ball will end up killing the snake because it will never digest. I have a mini poultry too, I sometimes use cooked eggs and insert niddle into them. Very effective. Pikin wey say him mama no go slip, him too no go sleep. grin grin

Forest cobras are known to terrorize poultry farmers. Grind bitter kola bury it and plant lemon grass exactly where you bury the bitter kola. Do this around where you have your bird farm and you won't see them again.

Action
Benefit
🧹 Control rodents
Reduces snake food source. Use traps or natural predators (cats).
🔐 Seal openings
Close gaps in walls, floors, and under coops.
🌾 Keep grass short
Snakes hide in tall grass—trim regularly around the farm.
🪵 Remove clutter
Eliminate piles of wood, bricks, or unused equipment that snakes might hide under.
🧼 Clean feed spills
Feed attracts rodents → rodents attract snakes. Keep storage sealed.
🧪 Use snake repellents
Commercial or natural (e.g., sulfur, garlic-oil based sprays). Reapply after rain.
🐔 Install mesh barriers
Fine wire mesh can prevent snakes from entering chicken coops. Make sure holes are <½ inch.
Thank you for touching on the rodents part. Even without a poultry farm around the house, a house with rodents is a sure accommodation for those sneaking bums.

Does this really work? Meanwhile, if it does work, what is responsible for that? Is it spiritual, nature or what exactly? I am only curious for knowledge sake. I have heard about this before.

Just boil one or two chickens eggs and keep away the rest of raw eggs and allow the snake to swallows those cook eggs. That all they will go and kill themselves and never returns to your poultry.
Why can't they eat cooked eggs

Pls explain
At least

If a snake swallow a boiled egg or golf ball it will just regurgitate it, so I don't get this comments about the snake dying.

You completely got it wrong!

Those are all myths originating from the fact that the snake as you can see in the picture is circled around the eggs. That's why the ancients said that the snake "protects" or "saves." It's a metaphor!!
Give me real life examples of how a snake "protects" and leave those ancient myths of yours.

Snakes go to poultry like you go to the market.
In developed countries, farms are not allowed anywhere less than half a mile from the last residential house.

If you don't understand what's a metaphor make use of your dictionary.

Obi is a lion doesn't mean that Obi is the animal called lion. It just means a strong person.

Try clear any bush around,block any entrance you think the snake can use to gain entrance to your poultry then fumigate it

That's your indoctrination!

Snake has nothing to do with Devil, neither does Devil have anything to do with snake.

The snake is an ancient African symbol for savior, protection but white people blackmailed it as Satan in the Bible. This began the fall of the black race since ancient times.

For more information, read the book: what is Satan? What is Lucifer? The biggest secret in the world. You'll find a link to it in one of my threads. Read the PDF version only, that's where you'll get all the details

Some of una dey muzz me sha!

So the book you want him to read is not written by "some human" (black/white)?

You know better than the Holy Books? Lemme just say this here, The Bible was not written by any White Man. Go and read about "Scrolls" and "Torah"

There's no relationship between a snake and the devil, really?! Even in the days of Moses, they knew that snakes and the devil had things in common - brutal, clever and cunny creature.
In fact, it was recorded in the Bible that they referred to "Snake" as "The Devil" Revelations 12:19.

"Snake is an ancient African symbol..." When was Africa formed?! Same Snake was used as a symbol for mercy and healing by Moses.

Snake was here before you. Snake serves a purpose in the environment, man destroys environment. Snake is pure in heart, man is evil starts wars. Look in the mirror and leave God's creatures alone. smiley

Snake is not evil, they are just legless lizards. Read real books and not fiction.

Snakes control rodent populations otherwise humans would starve from crop destruction. Nature has balanced itself more billions of years before humans.

Snake and Satan has nothing to do in common.
"The serpent" is only a metaphor for Satan's nature; cunning and deceitful.
Leave the animal alone
Re: Poultry And Snake by Jakumo(m): 4:58am On Jul 06, 2025
Snakes are repelled by the smell of petrol, but obviously great care must be taken when sprinkling petrol around any structure due to the fire risk.

Secondly, planting tobacco plants is REPORTED to also be a good repellent of snakes. Nothing to lose by planting lots of tobacco plants all around the poultry.

Thirdly, hard boiled eggs left with fresh ones in a poultry, when swallowed by a cobra, will choke the snake to death because the usual process whereby the snake slams its upper body on the ground to break swallowed eggs, will NOT work on hard boiled eggs, thus leading to the cobra choking to death.

Fourthly, a spitting cobra can be hooked like a fish with the trick of drilling a small hole in the fresh egg, and inserting a fishing hook attached to a length of nylon fishing line, inside that hole in the egg, which is then sealed with a few drops of candle wax. The egg is then placed where the snake has been observed, whereby the snake will swallow the egg, and wind up hooked like a fish and ready to be shot dead.

Finally, my preferred method of dealing with snakes is a shotgun blast from a range of more than 20 feet, so that the shooter is out of range from the acidic saliva of spitting cobras as shown in the photos above.
