There are more snake bites from the small (12" to 20") Pigmy Rattlesnake in Florida than any other snake. Their venom will not kill you but make you very sick. Sometimes hospital sick.

I see golfers reaching into tall landscape grass and bushes looking for golf balls all the time. Not smart---no golf ball is worth an overnight in the hospital. Black snake---no problem except to frighten you.

And of course God would have tripped me as I was running and said to me stop taking my son's name in vain.

Have you tried SNAKE-A-WAY.

The product seems to have some good reviews. If you do try it please post results here. Also, would any of the pest services like Massey include snake prevention or control?
