use the appropriate thickness: thin latex for babies, the yellow dishwashing gloves for bigger, and then the welder's gloves for the ones with the REALLY long teeth! I can definitely relate, once a snake has struck at me, it takes quite a while to get back that feeling of trust, and this will show in how you handle your snake. So you may be nervous and shaky, and your snake will pick that up. But if you use gloves, then you have nothing to fear. Hooks are kind of harder for me to handle than using gloves, I am always afraid the snake will slide off the hook.
