Living 11 miles from a ROAD in the middle of forest, you can imagine we come across plenty of wild herps.
Among the treasures are water moccasins, copperheads, the occasional rattler, and the rare gem, coral snakes.
Nothing delights me more than seeing them! Even coming across a hognose or ratsnake makes my day. Finding a coral makes my week!
We don't bother them. They rarely come close to the actual house, and there is little they can harm out here. I consider spotting a herp as a sign of a good day personally.
However, I can understand the need to remove snakes in other situations.
