SNAIL HOOK
SNAKE HANDLING & CATCHING TOOL
The Exo Terra Snake Hook is designed to facilitate the handling of snakes and make it safer for both the snake and the handler. Some snakes have the ability to perceive heat and may become defensive or curious about hot body parts, such as hands and arms. The cold metal does not give off heat, making it less stressful for the snake and safer for the handler. The tip of the Exo Terra snake hook is rounded to prevent injury. When the Exo Terra Snake Hook is fully extended, the shaft locks into place to prevent rotation when lifting or holding the snake. A snake hook can be a useful tool for everyday tasks, such as removing snakes for terrarium maintenance or moving them to other feeding places. The snake hook can also be used to move terrarium ornaments without scaring reptiles.
Pocket size, light weight and durable design make the Exo Terra Snake Hook ideal for traveling and catching wild snakes. In addition to safely handling snakes, the hook can also be used to move debris or pick up small rocks and logs. The Exo Terra Snake Hook also has a built-in hand strap so it can't be accidentally dropped or lost.
Carefully place the snake hook in the middle area of the snake's body, or a little closer to the head, and lift it up carefully.
