How about you relocate yourself to a part he isn't in since your in his house he isn't in yoursORIGINAL: Gunsmoke47
If you have ever been bitten by a poisenous snake your attitude may change a little about them. I know mine did. I harbor no ill will towards snakes in general and I do practice relocating every rattler I come in contact with. (usually 5 to 10 a year) I relocate his head in one direction and his body in another. I guess I hold grudges.
Kelly, Kelly, Kelly, I have to disagree, Snakes and most wild animals attack when threatened. Humans can (or should be able to) just tell the difference between what should be considered casual contact and threat.ORIGINAL: Gunsmoke47

Altho I don't agree with your method of removing the snake I do understand why you did.. I am speakin about people who go tramping in the woods an kill snakes they run into when they are the ones who are intruding not the snake all the snake wants to do is escape an find it's next meal or sunbath on the hot rocks to digest it's last meal. I never been bitten by a poisonous snake but I have been chased by a Copper head, I have also been bitten by many non poisonous snakes in my life..ORIGINAL: Gunsmoke47
Well creeper, I'll tell you a little secret. I wasn't in his house, he was in mine. It was 8:30 in the morning on April 15th. I stepped on him. He/She, never rattled, hissed, or offered to shake my hand, and I relocated him but not before he did substantial damage to my leg. I can't speak for copperheads, but if anybody thinks a rattle snake can't kill you, they know not of what they speak. For every one I kill, that is one less chance of an innocent child being bitten. I live in an area where they are rampant, and if I have to move, or they have to move........... guess who loses. I don't expect everybody to agree with me. I'm just sayin, if you have never been bitten, you do not need to make a call.
Eric, don't worry about the e's...[] I fought that all my life! lol
