I'm not sure if this is truth or a bit of urban legend. Be especially careful around pine straw and fallen leaves during warmer months late in the day.

We have a creek on our property and I have been reluctant to go down there w/ them by ourselves. I remember one time we were tubing on Wilson Creek and I saw THE MOST water snakes I have ever seen in my life! <br /><br />Do you know if it is true that having a black snake around the house keeps poisonous snakes away?Tasha Haashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17456772718963580399noreply@blogger.com
