Well, Considering most of you folks live in the Villages, let me tell you, I live in Orlando, and I have seen more snakes here than when I was living up in Leesburg.
I have probably seen 4 black races at my house, and have to get rid of them because of the pets and that we are scared of them.
I usually go on the trail to bike, and one time I saw a python!!
Black racers are agressive when confronted, and they tend not to be very shy when getting around your house, so always keep clean, grass low and an eye for them
You can try Naphthalene to keep them away from your house.
They do sell it at Lowe or at home depot.
I have never seen rattlesnakes (thank God), but saw a red corn snake dead on the road one day.
hope this info helps!
