I'm Yukon, and I 100% DO NOT approve of copperheads around here. Is this a new thing?
I thought only real chance of venomous around here was cotton mouth. Although I still kill them all to be on safe side.

Copperheads are the snake that bother me the most. I think it's because they can be difficult to see. However, after battling rodents for several years and experiencing the damage they can do I don't kill any non poisonous snakes. Rat snakes are your friend.
Also, much of my property is very good copperhead environment. I have several king snakes and in 20 years haven't seen a single copperhead or rattlesnake.

I found a rather large snake skin from a black snake in our pantry last year. I about crapped my britches and knew I had to keep the discovery under wraps or the wife and daughters would've moved out and set fire to this house while i was still in it.
About 1 month ago I tore an old fiberglass shower out in my bathroom to replace fittings, drain and install a rain cloud shower head along with tile and tile seat. After getting the old shower out there was another snake skin and I told the guy doing the replacement work that this must have come from the same black snake that shed out last year. He took one look at it and said its no black snake. After googling and comparing its from a damn copperhead that's about 2 1/2 feet long. Still haven't let the shemales in on this bit of info. One more occurrence and I'm thinking 25 pounds of tannerite. MFer! WTH?

When I was little, my cousin caught a snake and put it in his pocket. He carried it around all day, taking it out several times. When our GrandPa got home, he showed it to him. It turn's out it was a baby Copperhead. To this day we have no idea why it did not bite him, or us for that matter. There were 5 of us and we all held it.
This is the 9th copperhead we have killed on the place. We have great habitat for them.
We have timber rattlers and copperheads
Only one thing to say about that, God was with ya’ll on that day!!
This was my hard & fast rule until very recently. Finally decided I could endure Kingsnakes, simply because they (like myself) also kill snakes.
But sadly (and thanks to a snake-filled episode of "Wild America"), the last snake I killed was probably a young Kingsnake.
Sometimes ya just can't win...
I've killed 5 in the past week. 2 were in the pool. Anyone have any experience with Snake Away? I picked up 4 bags from Lowes yesterday.
