Snakes will hunt rats, mice and other small animals. The way that these small mammals move sends a rapid set of vibrations to a snake who will move closer to investigate a possible meal. However a snake entering a paddock of cows or horses quickly learns that these large animals can inflict serious injury by simply treading on the snake whilst moving across the paddock and are not prey. The vibration given off by a herd of large cattle is a heavier deeper pulse as the hooves hit the ground while grazing. This is a dangerous zone vibration for the snake and it will quickly move away to avoid injury or conflict with a larger animal.

As many of us are taught always to tread heavily whilst walking in the bush so that you do not come upon a snake and surprise it, given the chance the snakes will normally move away.

It will cover an area of approx 1250sq metres - that is 20 meters out in all directions from where it is placed - a large circle 40metres across.

Cover large areas using multiple units spaced apart and you can increase the effectiveness. When more than one unit is used the snake can not exactly sense where the danger is coming from as the pulses are coming from different directions. Although one Sentinel Repeller will successfully protect a radius of around 20 metres, 2 or more units spaced around 35 metres apart is more effective in the size of the area covered and in triggering the retreat sense in the snakes to move further away.
