I have Black Kingsnakes all around and under my trailer. I don't bother 'em cuz they kill and eat the Rattlers and Copperheads. I had one wrapped around my back door handle one day when I was comin' home and I almost grabbed it thinking it was a piece of the black insulation from the door frame or something. Luckily, the blonde yelled and said "What are you doing! That's a snake!" When I looked closer, he had his mouth open and ready to strike. It mighta hurt but they ain't poisonous. I grabbed him with a rake and flung him back in the grass.

We have some snakes around here in the blogs but they're harmless. They don't even have teeth. Democrat snakes.
