Are rodent repellent devices safe for snakes?
We have young curious large breed dogs who make using mouse traps and poison difficult and/or dangerous. We also have a ball python who lives in his terrarium, not free roaming.
All information I have found about electronic repellent devices say they are OK for dogs but to keep hamsters and other rodents away. I can't find anything about the affect on snakes. Google just gives me a long list about using/preventing/pros/cons of snakes eating mice and rats. Is this a viable option for iur home?

The elecronic repellers appear to work by making a high-pitched sound. Snakes don't hear all too well. I haven't seen mine react to any loud noises, like music or fireworks. If there's anything they're going to hear, it'll be the lower vibrations through the ground. I wouldn't worry in this case.
As for the dog-safe poison Elmy suggested, be advised that snakes would most likely be able to enter them if a rat or mouse can. Or at very least too close for comfort. So be advised if you let them free-roam for their exercise.
