    Ok, do you live in the city or the country? More likely to run into more snakes in the suburban/rural areas. I see 50 snakes a year easily here, and you either get used to it, or move. Try putting moth balls around your foundation and gardens to keep them away from those areas.

    I always called those black erasers (I'm serious this time). Pretty harmless. That's a good idea, though, to catch them, look them up, then decide before you kill them. You're coming around! :tu:

    But I too have seen more snakes this spring than usual. Coincidence? Something to do with the extended winter? Hopefully someone who knows more about it than I do can chime in.
