1. Gorgeous

There’s really no reason to be afraid of non-venomous snakes. See how calm that one was?

5. My mom was a science teacher and had a collection of snakes.

I was the one tasked with catching for her them because I was the only member of my family not freaked out by them. People would call her about a snake they found and we would pile in the car to go get it. I grew up catching venomous and non-venomous snakes. Once you get accustomed to how they move, it is pretty easy and not scary at all.

8. What fun

I respect people’s fear of snakes, but I do want people to know that most snakes are mellow creatures and very beneficial to have around.

2. I like snakes

My husband is terrified of them, so guess who does the snake wrangling around here.

I used to get rattlers when I lived in Calif. Pick them up with a rake, slide them into a bucket with a lid, relocate them. Unless they kill one of your dogs, then all bets are off. I started giving our dogs venom vaccinations.

4. Is your husband's name

Junior or Indiana by chance?

7. Snorf!

No.

He did get a pic a few years ago of a snake up in the pasture (from a distance!) No one could identify it--bright orange and large. Now the photo's lost on his old phone.

3. That would freak me out!

I am terrified of snakes, even if they are harmless. I think I would have a heart attack.

6. he is a beauty but

I would freak out if I found that in my home; I'd be calling the local equivalent of Billy the Critter Guy.

9. Sounds like she called someone for help

A good idea. Just don’t hurt the snake

[Skittles]

10. aw definitely I would not want it hurt

I'm not anti-snake, I'm just anti-snake-in-my-home

11. Very reasonable

Someone will get rid of the snake for you.
