We've been here about 20 months now and have never seen a mouse or rat and we do have palms, no snakes either. Just birds and alligators. Now if I did find a snake in the grill, the grill would be gone the next day, I like many others was taught to fear snakes at an early age and that fear still exists.
Just turn on the grill. Except charcoal, of course.

The vast majority of snakes here are black racers, which are not venomous. They’re completely black with white under the mouth.
