Too expensive. And just because you've never seen one, it doesn't mean they're not there. We had one of those deck boxes on our patio one year. In it, we had stored half a bag of potting soil. Nothing else. We came back after being away for the summer. When I lifted the lid, guess what "flew" out?! You guessed it! It had apparently thought the potting soil was a cozy place for a nest.
I screamed loud enough for neighbors to come running. Needless to say, we now buy our potting soil in very small bags and never store it.
BTW snakes are everywhere, too. Don't kill them. We need them to check rats and other pests.
Hey, this is Florida. If they're not in your house, you don't need to worry about them.
FWIW, they love citrus as much as palms.
