Yep. I saw one in my backyard once. It was about 3 - 4 inches long....but dead.
I’ve killed 2 snakes in my backyard
The 1st was about 10 years ago...
I found a green Garter Snake in some leaves
it was about 1 foot long and I attacked that sucker with the rake like i was protecting home and hearth from a rattler..There was very little to bury when I was finished with him..LOL
We have Mocassions, Cottonmouths and Diamond Back Rattlers in TN so the next time I saw a snake (last summer) it looked like a 2 foot long Diamond Back...
Again I acted brave ...I ran..LOL
It chased me...I had to consider my grandchildren so I managed to act like one of the 600 and face down the cannons...
I managed to subdue it and again leave a wiggling mass...
This time I scraped the remains into a bag and called the Agricultural Extention...
The guy there said to bring it on in...
I did...to be told it was another Garter Snake...
LOL
