| I saw a snake on my patio one night, but it wasn't very big or poisonous. It was a southern ringneck. I check now before we go outside. Hate snakes and spiders! |

| I have a girlfriend in NC (Greensboro) and she's had two run-ins with copperheads. She's ready to move. I don't know anything about them, but I don't like any snakes!

| I've killed two copperheads so far this year. I don't know what's going on, that is two more snakes in my yard than I've seen since I have lived there. |

| I have never seen a Copper head! I live in Arizona and we dont have them but we have Rattlesnakes. Do Copperheads have rattles at the end of the tail like Rattlesnakes? |

| Thanks for posting that picture!! They are very pretty!! I like snakes but dont want them in my yard!LOL So, I guess, they dont "warn" you like a Rattler does before they strike. How scary!! |

| Excluding King Snakes, the only good snake is a dead one. The only reason I don't kill King Snakes is because they eat other snakes. |
