Victor® Snake-A-Way® Snake Repellent Granular

Victor® Snake-A-Way® contains a unique formula that is third-party tested and effective against even the toughest snakes. This long-lasting snake repellent can be used to repel rattlesnakes and garter snakes from areas around houses, cabins, trailers, garages, flowerbeds, and more.

Sends Snakes Scurrying

Sends Snakes Scurrying

Snake-A-Way®’s unique formula works to temporarily disrupt the snake’s Jacobson’s Organ (auxiliary olfactory sense organ), on which a snake relies for its survival. This successfully causes a snake to become disoriented, forcing it to retreat in search of fresh air.

Easy Application

Wearing gloves, spread Snake-A-Way® granules along the perimeter of the area you want to protect to create a long-lasting snake barrier. Once applied, the formula starts working, and lasts until the scent dissipates. To repel rattle snakes, sprinkle in bands 8-12 inches wide, and to repel garter snakes, sprinkle Snake-A-Way® in bands 4-5 inches wide.

Easy Application
 EPA Registered Snake Repellent

EPA Registered Snake Repellent

Purchased a 4lb bag off Amazon. Use the product as directed. Before loading up my wood rack, I placed the product under and around the perimeter of the rack. The covered the wood rack. The smell is strong, but has absolutely no effect on garter snakes. They have been in and around the wood rack ever since.

I purchased a 10lb bag of snake away from home-depot. I used as directed from the bag & let me tell you, it was not pleasant. Myself, Wife (who's pregnant), & my son lives in a small 1000ft square ft house. I used in the yard & around the perimeter of the house & the smell was so strong. We have been smelling it for weeks. When the wind shifts the smell blows into the crawls space and then sneaks into the house. I have tried vacuuming, & spraying water on the granules for weeks. (which help a little). I just want the smell gone. Bad purchase for me and I am not sure if it worked.

Have been using this for years around my house, yes the smell can penetrate the house the first day or two so you should avoid spreading it too close to your house entrances, give it some room and you won't have any problems. The smell goes away after a day or two. Not a big deal. Rather deal with the smell than with the snakes!

I spread the granules as directed around the patio as that is where the two brown checked colored snakes live and sun themselves. Next day plus they were sunning themselves on the perimeter of patio near their holes. And, now several days and they are still here.

Placed product around perimeter of our house. An Intense, terrible smell permeated into the house. So much so we were afraid to be in the house. We are trying to contact company to see if there is a way to neutralize the product. It can not be removed as we have decorative stones around the house

We are sorry to hear about this! Vacuuming with a shop vac is the best way to clean up the product. After that, you can then water it down to help break it down faster. The product is covered under a 30-day return policy. Please give us a call at 855-584-2867 for assistance.

This stuff really works, but there is a big however. We have monsoon rains and it gets washed away, and then the rattle snakes come out. That is where shot shells become useful. If it rains for several days in a row, it is futile to put down more snake away, until there is a dry spell. When it is dry, the snake away is not affected by winds, and works very well at repelling rattlesnakes.

We have a garter snake nest under my raised garden. I sprinkled it around three sides and snakes immediately started pouring out! Our dogs were also repelled by the scent and stayed away.

We were getting rattlesnakes through our fence on the wash. Laid down a border and haven't seen any since.

Living by a lake we are always looking for ways to keep snakes away. Since using the product we haven’t seen any of the critters on the property.

Q&A

The label says not to use where snakes are already present. Why not?
Question by: Patricia Coggins on Jun 27, 2021, 8:00 PM
We do not recommend use this product in sites where snakes are believed to already be present as the deterrent effects of the product might tend to confine snakes to the treated areas.
Answer by: Woodstream (Admin) on Jun 29, 2021, 8:00 PM
The last two bags I purchased have had no odor when applying. Has the product formula changed?
Question by: Laura on Apr 29, 2025, 12:52 PM
Thank you for reaching out and for your continued support.

We want to assure you that there has been no change in the formula of our product. While slight variations can occasionally occur due to differences in raw material batches or storage conditions, the formulation remains the same and continues to meet our quality standards.

I bought this product as it says it is safe for people and pets. Then I read some of the questions asked and it is mentioned that “if ingested” to please seek a vet immediately. Can you clarify how this is “safe for pets please?”
Question by: Kevin on Apr 29, 2025, 3:54 PM
Thank you for your message and for raising this important question.

When a product is marketed as "safe for pets," it means that it is safe when used as directed — specifically, when applied and handled according to the usage instructions on the label. This includes keeping pets away from treated areas until the product has settled or dried, as appropriate.

We appreciate your attention to safe use and are happy to answer any further questions you may have.

Is it pet safe
Question by: Fred on Oct 19, 2025, 7:03 PM
If this product is applied in an area frequented by people or pets, it is important to physically clean up as much as possible.
Vacuuming with a shop vac is the most effective method, followed by watering down the area to help break down the product.
Snake-A-Way® is an EPA registered snake repellent, which means that when used as directed, it will not have adverse effects on humans or the environment.
