I agree with the person above about moth balls. I grew up with a pond on our land and it was covered with water mocasins and cotton mouths we scattered moth balls around the perimeter of the pond and we rarely saw a snake venture into the yard, Snakes smell with their tounges, and they can also taste this, they apparently don't like the taste of the moth balls. It also works on cats, we used to put them under our cars to keep them off of them.

Keeping the lawn mowed helps deter them. Snakes prefer taller grass to hide it. We have a creek and two ponds and the snakes never venture into the yard.I just bought a new house on a pond...Is there any way to keep moccasins/snakes away from the yard where the k
You won't be able to now. You brought water...they seek that.
I have heard that MothBalls help to deter them.
