For me I would rather see a snake than rats that carry diseases and can chew the wiring in my home and car.

I have held several snakes, mostly when zoo handlers had snakes for the public to hold. But, that was under a controlled situation. I'm not disagreeing with what you said....bottom line still is: I Hate Snakes!!
