      From the article :

      Snake wranglers have 60 days to catch the snakes. Participants are being paid minimum wage hourly rate, up to eight hours daily, with an additional $50 payment for pythons measuring up to four feet.

      Wranglers capturing a bigger snake will earn an extra $25 for each foot measured above four feet.

        That shows how common they've become. I went camping down there and found a few near my tent. They were all less than 2 feet, but you know the big ones are out there.

              An old friend had an albino burmese python, orange and white scales. It was quite heavy at ten feet of length. The sound of crunching bones from its food is unforgettable.

                The Everglades is a perfect environment for them.

                Anacondas are in the everglades too, but are less common

                                      Solution. Put up some Nanny Cams.
                                      Catch them turn them in, shame them, evidence, or your own pleasure. Your home, your rules.
                                      Just put that you have security cameras on the premise, just dont have to state where they are for security reasons.

                                          AirBnB anticipated that.

                                            "More specifically, we require hosts to disclose all cameras in listings and we prohibit any surveillance devices in certain private spaces (such as bedrooms and bathrooms) regardless of whether they’ve been disclosed."

                                            I'm just never doing that. Who knows what people do in your place.
