Yes, the most obvious reason being that an inch long fang is going to leave a nice dose of bacteria well below the surface of your skin. It is much easier to effectively clean the scratches of a nice superficial Nerodia bite. If bitten by a venomoid, I would be sure to seek medical attention right away, for a variety of reasons...
