Another thing I do that seems to work for me, is I give them a little tap on the nose if they look like they are gonna bte me. Now, I have to explain. Most of my bites come from the snake mistaking me for food. Either I have the smell of mice on my hands, or another snake. I have come to recognize the signs just before a bite. That certain look the give as they smell your hand. Or a lingering stop as they pass over your hand. So a small love tap on the nose, reminds them I'm not food. Now with a snake that is just very nervous and is biting from fear, or aggression this may not work.
