There many ways to get rid of snacks one of them as some says natural snack killers which are cats.
Some advocate ultrasonic devices, or even poisons but sure they are attracted to your place by the design of your yard or the abundance of rodents which they prefer as their meal so you have as a start to study the yard potentials for rodents, hidden areas that can be inhabited by snacks eradicate all.
use natural killers, and ultrasonic devices for both rodents, and snacks.
at last in some countries there are some tribes that can deal with bare hands with snacks and not harmed with it!??? you can get some hands from them.
Nb. Garlic is one of the potent repellents to many night creatures it deserve a try.

Snakes are attracted to places they can get a drink of water and places they can sun - so you should remove any water features and an "sunning rocks" they might be attracted to. You can make a trench about 12" wide and 2" deep and fill it with broken pottery shards - check the local plant stores and nurseries and pottery shops to get some for free (you may need to leave them a container to fill - put your phone number on the container so they can call you when it is full.) Snakes are not as delicate as slugs, but they are not looking for scratches, either, so pottery - even glass - will help limit their access - but do not walk into it in your bare feet either!

Hey Chachi,
Moth Balls, spread liberally throughout the area of your yard where you want to protect. If you go all around the boarder, they will not come in your yard. Or, you could buy "Snakeaway", see the site below.
