I have to add that I can appreciate you not having the mindset to just kill every snake that you come across. It was pointed out in a very recent thread to find appreciation for someone like you that are looking to educate yourself rather than blindly killing everything you don't completely feel comfortable with. I thank you for that. I do however feel the best way to protect your family is by educating them about the animals rather than killing them. Same as the old proverb "you can give a man a fish to feed him for a day but teach him to fish and feed him for a lifetime". "you kill a snake trying to protect your family from this individual snake but educate them about the snakes and you protect them from all snakes for life". Thank you again for your desire to educate yourself about snakes.
