coobah666 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Don't kill snakes. Better to stick to your high rise condo in the big city. I have young children and a good snake is a dead snake,so you saying its better to let the snakes bite your family members. Odds on you have never been close to one.

Tree hugger Try educating them about snakes instead of the infantile "kill it" mentality..............many are totally harmless. The cobra eats other snakes so every cobra you kill increases other snake populations. PS I live in the sticks often get 3 type of snake, one is the Malay Pit Viper ( venomous), docile things easily moved, the other is the golden tree snake, fast as hell, harmless enough. Id worry more about my kids going on a bus!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thongkorn Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Usually Snakes are attracted to rats or poor hygiene, in built up areas. (throwing food waste out), or some times dog smells. no need to kill them, unless in direct danger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tree hugger No need to kill snakes. 1 local call to get one Removed. They serve a purpose. The snake ends up dead anyway, because the person you call is going to kill it and eat it, or sell it to someone who will kill it and eat it. I suppose they serve a purpose in the sense that they are returned to the food cycle this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poppy39 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I dont thinks so its a poison snake, but may b its some kind of rat snake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Beetlejuice Posted October 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 22, 2014 It`s a common rat snake, completely harmless. Those who`s attitudes are to kill first and ask questions later are ignorant, no point in trying to explain to these fools. We have many of those very common rat snakes in our garden, no problem. That one appears to be a baby, perhaps daddy rat snake will visit later on and take it`s revenge 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
