Kukri snakes, though generally harmless, can become unwelcome guests if they decide to make your outdoor sofa their home. To prevent this, follow these practical steps:

1. Regular Cleaning and Inspection – Remove debris, leaves, and clutter around your sofa, as these attract snakes seeking shelter. Check underneath cushions and frames frequently.

2. Use Snake Repellents – Natural repellents like clove oil, cinnamon, or commercial snake deterrents can discourage kukri snakes from approaching.

3. Elevate Your Sofa – Place your sofa on a raised platform or legs to reduce hiding spots and make it less appealing to snakes.

4. Trim Surrounding Vegetation – Keep grass, bushes, and plants near your seating area well-trimmed to eliminate hiding spots.

5. Install Mesh or Barriers – Use fine mesh or snake-proof fencing around your outdoor furniture to block entry.

By taking these precautions, you can enjoy your outdoor space without worrying about unwanted reptilian visitors. Stay vigilant and maintain a clean, snake-unfriendly environment!
