Sick of snakes

[HOSS]

I've had about enough! I am going to box up a few hundred and send them down to Jogeephus as he seems to like them. I have been doing some dozer work to fix the levee on my lake. I had to push back several yards of woods behind the levee to be able to dig it out and get a dump truck in there. Evidently I got them stirred up. I have shot about a dozen over the last few days. I got 2 copperheads yesterday. I have been keeping a .357 mag on the dozer loaded with snake shot. Seems I am overran with copperheads and water moccasins. Last week it was like the wild west and I felt like marshall dillon with my fast draw. I hate snakes.....don't mind the big black snakes, garter snakes and king snakes but the rest are heart attacks waiting to happen. Been fortunate that I have not seen many rattlesnakes much this year. Just a couple all summer.

I bought a 40 acre piece last year and have saw more snakes out there this year than I've seen in the last 10 combined. Nothing poisonous yet but they had all better watch out once I start to build.

Yep! they won't run down and bite you!

A snake is a snake is a snake.
The only good snake is a dead snake, and I don't really like them either.

[HOSS]

Mostly been moccasins and then the coppers. The area behind the levee is rather swampy with some standing water and thick as a jungle. Great moccasin habitat. They are aggressive. They will strike at the dozer treads which I am sure has bradded a few fangs

Don;t forget the bright blue spray paint!

[GMN]

snakes are cool

[Limomike]

Dont matter to me what kind of snake it is... if I see it, its gonna end up being a dead one!

[Dave]

Wouldn't it be just as much fun to run them over with the Cat? The tracks should do a good job of crushing them. if they run you get to chase them. If they turn and fight...... well you have them out gunned.

All you snake averse people need to join a herpetological society and learn to love the critters.

[Jogeephus]

The vibration of the machinery will cause them to stir out of their holes in the ground. If it gets cool, becareful getting on the dozer in the morining cause they will lay up near the tracks. However if you simply paint them blue then they are easily seen and you can step over them.

Im not sure I could stay on the loader if one decided to crawl up from the bottom and join me on the operators platform. Hope you are fast with the .357 Hoss.

They have been known to hang on to the tract and ride it all the way around. Not to bad on a flat track, High track is a little different. Have run over them and they stuck to the mud on the track and came all the way around.
