Gentle Giant Snake Tongs — Protect Your Coop, Chickens, and Eggs (Humane Removal)
Keep snakes out of nest boxes and runs—without harming them. Gentle Giant Tongs™ are built for calm, controlled handling so you can move a snake away from the coop safely.
Why they’re safer for snakes (and you)
-
Wide 2¼" jaws spread pressure to reduce stress and injury.
-
Triple rubber–coated top jaw adds gentle drag for a secure hold.
-
Polished lower jaw is smooth, cutting the snake’s forward push so it stays put.
-
Strong, lightweight build: blue aircraft-grade aluminum tube with concealed stainless-steel cable and spring; .055" wall thickness for durability.
-
Tested to keep many species calmer than with narrow, standard tongs.
How to use around a coop
-
Secure the birds and give the snake space.
-
Grip gently at the mid-body (never the neck), lift, and place into a lidded bin for transport.
-
Relocate per local laws or call animal control, especially for venomous species.
-
Wear boots/gloves; use tongs only for gentle handling, not as a prod.
Humane control helps protect your flock—and the native wildlife that keeps rodents in check.
