Mystery Snake

Seen a few Copperheads around here but wasn't ever in a position to dispatch them, and I was always in the woods (where it's their home not mine). Couple rats snakes in the yard have succumb to the Daisy BB gun but other than that we've been lucky.. Black widows everywhere though.
 



Almost stepped on this guy while detailing an RV last week. This is a Pygmy Rattler with a venomous bite. Not enough to kill a human, but enough venom to lose a toe and make your life miserable for a week or more.

I'm not one to kill anything, I just feel it is necessary, but then again, I respect all nature. The way I look at it, is that we're in their space, not the other way around. This snake was easily removed without any hassle and back to work I went.
 
I will never forget "Red on yellow, kill a fellow; Red on black, friend of Jack"
 
Damn. I can't stand snakes. Found one in my "chew" when I was in Iraq a few years ago. Almost s*** my pants. LMAO. Good thing there aren't any snakes her in Hawaii

:awesome:

You could cut the air with a knife tonight, 10:00 PM 82 degrees, 83% humidity. I detailed a BMW yesterday, 12 bottles of water and 3 shirt changes later I was done, Literally! :doh:

That is when I just spray myself with the hose. After a while the sweat and water all mix and it doesnt matter.

My friend lived out near Jax International Airport. At certain times of the year he had to run his riding mower all over the back yard to clear these things out so they would not get his dog.
