Snake nets




I walk down my road every morning and I noticed this on all of the poles.


This is a snake net.


The snake will crawl up the pole and maybe it will reach the top. If the snake is of a particular length then it may reach the wires at the top and connect the two and 

a power-cut... and a dead snake

  1. Snakes or squirrels? The latter frequently climb electricity poles

  2. Maybe that's why I don't see many squirrels crawling up the posts anymore? The squirrels have all been killed or they have learnt not to crawl up. Snakes (which are dead) on the other hand are still causing power cuts where I work!
