Declare an open season on the big snakes. Invite shot gunners from anywhere in the US to take a dozen. Offer a $1.00 per snake bounty by the state of Florida.
The problem has a solution...

You got it! Put a generous bounty on them and they will eventually disappear.

Invite a bunch of yankees into the everglades? Be prepared to rescue the yankees.

They are very elusive critters, I don’t think inexperienced hunters would have much luck.

Why not train them to eat liberals.

I'm not certain you realize how inaccessible most of the Everglades is. Cajuns would give up . . . quickly.

We took a group of Scouts there recently and we went on *noncommercial* airboat rides (enough of us to fill four boats, and each pair of two went in a different direction) several miles back into some narrows. Iguanas (not native) were pretty common if a spot was open to the sun. We saw two large pythons.

Exotic pet owners who tire of their pets when they get too large don't appear to care or understand that simply letting "Otto" or "Killer" loose in the Everglades is a bad idea.
