Rattlesnakes are big ????

They are the big snakes out in these parts, and we need the big snakes to eat all the big varmints they can.

The trouble is, these snakes are really ass-holes. They can decide an area is theirs (including your house) and they don't negotiate.

So, i spray them with a water hose or move them with my snake catching stick.

(the baby one in the bathtub drain was a pain!) Well, i didn't get bit, but i wish i had thought of using one of those scissor like snake catchers you introduced us to. I used chopsticks)
