In my world there is no snake that does not deserve a good killing.
I have snakes here in the stone walls and they keep the chipmunks,ground squirrels and other rodent populations down.We don’t kill them.
Most snakes are harmless. My friend Henry is a rat snake. He keeps the rodents under control in my barns and keeps other snakes away. Every year I anxiously await the first Henry sighting. I feel much better once I see him, knowing the rattlers won’t be around.
In my world they are all deadly poisonous and deserve to die.
