Cape Coral snake tip of the month: Will a high pitch sound deterrent machine work against snakes? - A popular mass market gimmick for nuisance animals out there is the high pitch noise machine. While people have seen limited success with these items when it comes to birds, most other nuisance animals, snakes included, aren't bothered by loud sounds the way we would like them to be. Snakes, of course, are lowest on the list of those affected by noise. Why won't a high pitch noise machine work against snakes? Well, for starters, snakes don't have ears to hear sounds with in the manner humans and other mammals do. In fact, it has long been debated about just how snakes hear sounds because they don't have identifiable ears. Only recently have scientists agreed that snakes feel vibrations from sounds, but beyond this, the animals don't seem particularly reactive to them. The bottom line? Don't waste your money on a sound machine when it comes to snakes in your yard.
