I would have had a heart attack if I came across that snake! Bugs and spiders don't bother me but snakes are a different story.

eww...what happened to it? did animal control take it or did it just roam off

 

[Jenvenza]

Big snake! What happened to it?

 

[live4christp1]

DH ran over it which messed it up pretty bad. He was coming home when it was crossing the driveway. So then he chopped off it's head. It was 4 feet exactly - minus the head.

I know what 10 rattles are but what is a "button"

He saw a bigger one last week, estimated at almost 6 feet.......it got away .

It's the little small one on end. Don't know why but that's what my mom & dad always called it.

WEW! Don't think I could handle something like that roaming around. Snakes are one of my biggest fears. I could tell from the picture that something wasn't right. It did look a lot flatter then I thought it should look.

OMG, I can't imagine coming across a rattler ! Very few things scare me, snakes being one! I discovered a 1 ft blk snake in our house recently and almost had heart
failure . Luckily DH was here to take care of it or I'd headed left for safer grounds! I envisioned snakes around every corner for about a month!

 

[HomeSweetDisney]

OMG

Just looking at a PICTURE of that thing freaks me out...I can't imagine coming across one in person!

I almost stepped on a snake yesterday. Wearing sandals. I SCREAMED LIKE A GIRL!!! And I am a girl.

See, thats why I prefer NYC!

Our huge mutant rats and unnaturally large cockroaches keep things like this at bay. (Not to mention the alligators in the sewers)

I killed one down buy my pool a few months ago. It was laying in a flower bed that I had just weeded the night before. I walked right buy it twice before I even saw it. I hate those things!

As for the one who got away.

 

[NEVERENOUGHWDW]

Just reading this freaks me out!!!!
Is there anyway you can protect your home/property from snakes??!!

Glad nobody got hurt!
