This is such a great post! It is sad that so many see a snake nonvenomous or venomous and right away want to kill it. I guess they don't understand that they do a lot for people. Like us that lives in the woods snakes offer us pest control. I like to teach my children to always have a watchful eye when it comes to areas they may be. But at the same time I teach them to always have respect for them and not to mess with them. We are not the type that shy away from killing. But i do have a rule in my house that the only time you should kill is if you are trying to feed your family, protecting your family or live stock, or if you have to put an animal down so it doesn't have to suffer any more. But other than that killing any thing just to kill it is a wast of a life.
