Air-dropping Tylenol-stuffed mice carcasses
I always thought snakes didn't seek out and consume prey that was already dead but apparently that isn't so from this tactic.

Yeah, that was what I thought too! I remember snakes having something more akin to heat vision - and thus meaning no dead prey. My facts might be outdated or just simply wrong. Better check my facts.

I did some googling and it seems that on a lot of the reptile boards they say that the only safe way to feed your snake is with dead mice.
