sigmonkeyWe dispatched two coral snake in our office building.
One was found earlier in the week in an unleased area we had just had cleaned in prep for new tenants, and the locksmith found it when he went in to change the locks.
The other was found by our locate crews as they were preparing to head out this morning and it crawled accross the floor.
It met Mr. Shovel.
Mr. Shovel did not like Mr. Killafellow.
Mr. Killafellow stopped showing any interest in much of anything after the introduction.
Glad they don't fly.

especially around water , ( for some reason)
but no jumpers here, as far as I know

lymangrandma always said if the snake can climb a tree you need to kill it,
she said a tree climbing snake would climb in the house, (instant death for snake, grandma did not tolerate that)
if said snake was in the chicken coop, it would get relocated to the corn crib (75yrs away)
all others were left alone, since they ate other critters
killing a black snake (unless it climbed a tree) would get you an ass whipping
