I think people need to study up on what poisonous snakes look like and stop killing every snake they see.

Poisonous snakes are very easy to identify...

Sorry guys but non venomous snakes get a pass from me. Three rattlesnakes in the back yard is a time to kill.


I work hard, drink a little and hunt when I can.

Lots of these comments are coming from people who don't have 4 year old little girls. When they are scared and crying, saying "don't cry or be scared, it's only a 5 foot bull snake" doesn't make it better. From someone who has had a 4 year old little girl, I know why it had to die bull snake or not.

I had a 4 yo girl. Have a son, 18, as well. She's 27 now. She was raised with 3 large ball pythons in the house. Fortunately dad raised them to control their fear and respond accordingly. He can kill it if he wants. His prerogative. End of story really.

I use "Snake Away" and get it at Lowes. So far so good (knock on wood), haven't seen a rattler around my house in 3-4 years.
Note: I have heard this only works with rattlers which would coincide with what has happened at our house. Lots of snakes but no rattlers.

Snake away helps a lot we used to get at least 6 snakes a year either in or out of the house. It works on all kinds of snakes. I'm 12 and still know the difference in a pouisness and nonpouisness!!!
