I never quite figured this out. It's probably different for different species. But very nervous snakes start to get worked up at the mere sight of a human, before you've even opened their cage. Others seem ok until they are touched. I don't think I've ever had a snake that would be ok until it smelled a human, and then started to strike. But the gloves might help anyway, a lot of snakes HATE being touched by a warm object like a hand, especially when they are small. But I bet that if you picked the kingsnake up and handed it to your brother, he wouldn't get bitten. I've only got one snake who is THAT psycho. Wait.. ok, two. Not counting the hots. But you get the idea.
