Seriously though if you have a black snake in your yard (which they are completely harmless) that usually means you have mice. A snake is only going to hang around where there is food, so you are basically getting free extermination services. <BR/><BR/>Snakes are a vital part to the ecosystem and keeping rodents under control. I suspect if you had two snakes in one day, you surely have or now had some rodents that they felt made a great lunch special.<BR/><BR/>Snakes do no damage to the environment. The would much rather not see you than you see them. They are not slimy, they are dry and smooth and they do not smell.<BR/>They are also pretty darn smart. :)Malicious Intenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05477868628325387881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495862966543058553.post-63498706942007712202008-04-29T14:58:00.000-04:002008-04-29T14:58:00.000-04:00Patricia - awww come on, you can still come over. ...Patricia - awww come on, you can still come over. I'll make sure mr. snake dude is not around. :D<BR/><BR/>liza - See that's exactly what I mean, behind glass works best for me, but I feel bad too. <BR/><BR/>Karen - I would die if I found a snake in my shoe!!! Although I couldn't have a snake for a pet, the people that I know who do, really love them and say the snake loves them back. If you read the post after this one then you'll see what I mean when I say there are lots of animals that I don't get the love thing but others do.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04521384704019863926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495862966543058553.post-15122070522076472172008-04-29T13:17:00.000-04:002008-04-29T13:17:00.000-04:00I so don't do snakes either, Vicki.

My mother said the cat must've brought it into the house and put it there, but since we didn't have pet doors, I don't know how the cat could've brought in a snake that size without anyone noticing. I don't understand people who keep such creatures as pets. It can't be for the companionship?Karen Lingefelthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12711995788044655253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495862966543058553.post-66466924326615835942008-04-28T22:35:00.000-04:002008-04-28T22:35:00.000-04:00I have to say I'm best when they are behind glass....I have to say I'm best when they are behind glass. I feel really bad about it too. I think all animals should be in their own enviornment, but really don't want snakes near me. I'm not just picking on snakes, I don't want bugs near me either.mslizalouhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05346608035190326136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8495862966543058553.post-77161127407412948092008-04-28T18:31:00.000-04:002008-04-28T18:31:00.000-04:00Not.Love you Vicki, but NOT coming to visit.
