A snake fence is a joke. Snakes are great climbers.

Speaking of fences, have you seen the video of the alligator climbing over the 6ft chain link fence?

Cibolo is just down the road from me. Had a coral snake in my driveway last week.

My first house in Austin had a rattlesnake nest inside the wall of the garage.

Well, THAT sounds like fun...

More fun than getting my cat to help move a badger out of my garage. Those Wisconsin fans are such trouble...

In a few months I will be wishing I lived anywhere in the south. I’ll remember your comment, make some hot cocoa and trundle through another Minnesota winter knowing that the freezing temps keep away poisonous creepy crawlies.

My older sister once rented a place out by Olney, moving in by Thanksgiving. Pretty cold winter that year.

Place had been occupied so she and her hubby spent about a week cleaning it up and fixing holes.

Then about March she hears thumps in the bedroom walls. OK, she thinks, the mice are back for Spring.

Nope, it turns out that rattlesnakes had decided to nest in the walls of that old farmhouse, and were waking up after hibernation.

I can't vouch for the story, except to say that my parents bought her a whole new set of furniture, since she was NOT going back to reclaim what was in that house.
