The rat patrol does more than the snakes I suspect. I think SK has one too, so it gives a bit of a buffer from that direction.Alberta hasn't rats because they got rid of them before the numbers and range got out of control...also I heard that the largest garter snake pit is also in AB. Maybe the snakes also help to keep the rats down.
I fed birds for two years, but found the disadvantages outweighed the pleasure. Too many squirrels harassing the shyer birds....rats too. Also I realized feeders draw predators. I had wild rabbits feeding there only to be killed by something. Snakes hung around, as did owls. Too much drama!
