Do snakes eat moles? If so, send them to my house. I"m so sick of the moles right now. I've been filling in holes for the past 30 minutes! argh

Snakes? I don't want to touch one, but I don't mind them - unless they rattle. Those scare the bajeezus outta me!

We have Copperheads and Cottonmouths that are common around me. We do have them rattling kind too. But I haven't seen one around my house thank goodness. You need a Great Pyrenees to get rid of moles. . My Shadow would dig and dig until he caught it and killed it! We never had moles when he was around!

Omg-- I could not live where you live! One time I was going through a pet store and swore I saw a snake trying to slither out the top of an aquarium...I froze and almost had a panic attack...til my friend pointed out it was an extension cord. We get gartner snakes here, but very rarely do I see them. In the summer on really warm days there is a highway I will not take cuz they come out to sun them selves. The first time I saw that I hit the cruise control and put my feet up...I can't do snakes!!!

Terri wont Mandie take care of the moles???? If not I can send Ruby down for a couple of weeks!!!

Amy had a confuntation with a snake the other day. She said she had her little Ace out and he was looking at a snake my very smart dd went to pick the snake up by its tail. she said it was aggressive sometimes I wonder about her

Anyway, it ran away and she looked it up on the internet to see what type it was. It was a garden snake. she was really upset

First of all...LOL @ the extension cord!!!

Well, she AND her brother (mostly her brother) would take care of the moles if I'd let them. But that would mean letting them dig and I don't let them dig - never good for a dog to think it's ok to dig or the fence will end up being useless one day. lol

I noticed our neighbors have those things you put in the ground to drive moles away - probably driving them right to my yard.

Oh my gosh - I just totally hijacked your thread, Rhonda. Sorry!!

On topic - we have black runners around here. Do you have those in AR? I watched a kid riding his bicycle one summer (years ago) and a black runner was chasing him. He pedaled faster and it just kept on following him. I yelled for him to stop and turn around. He was like "huh?! Are you crazy?" I said, "Just do it. I promise." He did..starting riding towards the runner and that snake TOOK OFF! lol..funniest thing I'd ever seen (well involving a snake)

Runners???? What's a runner? Im kinda laughing that a snake w no legs is called a runner! I didn't even think about digging!!!! That would not be good

Haha no problem!

Omg if one was chasing me I'm sure I would have a heart attack!!! I don't know if they are here or not?? I'll have to ask DH!

They are called eastern racers mostly. Here in my neck of the woods, we call them black runners.
