I did have a friend who kept retics and always kept a spray bottle of vodka on hand for emergencies (like people use a hairdresser's spray bottle of water to train a cat). Not sure if he ever had to use it, but it beats rooting through the cocktail cabinet with a 20-foot snake clamped to your hand.... But again, this is overkill in the case of a corn snake, just to add to the general discussion.
