I have actually thought about this, over the years.
Frankly, I may just keep my foxhole to myself.
I have seen some really otherwise bad ass mofos reduced to quivering jelly anytime a snake or spider happens by.
I find that deeply disturbing.
I agree. Around here I am the designated spider, hornet and weird bug no one can identify killer. I do have a poorly developed sense of fear and am often not appropriately scared. I do posses a healthy respect for reptiles and usually give them as wide a wide berth when possible. I draw the line at in the house intrusions of pit vipers. I grew up in timber rattler country they are just plain mean. Later I lived in the South and discovered that adult cottonmouths make the timbers look almost friendly. Then I moved West and discovered Mojave Blues, those bastards will chase a human and are evolving to have no rattles.
