Eliminate distractions, as much as possible.
Keep a large empty garbage can (with lid) on hand, just in case you need to quickly secure an uncooperative snake.
Make sure you have, and are competent with, the appropriate tools.
FOCUS - stupid mistakes are just that...stupid. Don't get careless.
I keep 3-4 hooks in arms reach so when it climbs the stick I can lay it down and pick another up. I also treat a one foot snake as though he can tag me from 1 foot away. I have to get my venomous lis befor i can get one too.
