Default Re: Fruit Trees in TV?

We northerners really love the idea of having citrus trees. But my son-in-law, a native Floridian, keeps telling me not to do it. He says that in just a few years you have more fruit than you can handle and the oranges fall to the ground -- attracting bugs -- who attract little critters -- who attract snakes (shudder). Is this true? I think he for sure has my number regarding snakes, but is there any truth in what he says?
