Heavens, you have to get used to it because you live in an area where there are snakes etc. Here in France, we have also snakes, they like to hide in the piles of wood we have over here because here we only have wood to burn in our stoves.
But I'm happy to say that they are not as dangerous as the snakes you describe in your post.
You are very wise to learn your children how to deal with the snakes, they will never forget your lessons and act accordingly.
As born in a city in the Netherlands, I'm not used to snakes so I'm very careful when we are in our house in France. But living in the country makes me so happy. We live here around 6 months a year, the other 6 months we live in Rotterdam in the Netherlands and enjoy the city. I don't have to choose but when it would come to that, I prefer the countryside.
Thank you again for your educational posts.
Have a good day, Clio

We went on a hiking trip once in South Africa and there was a scorpion in the wood at night when we made fire. Scary black thing!!! 😀
