ANY OUTDOOR MEN AND WOMEN HUGE QUESTION? SNAKES!!!! I want to start this off by saying I am not afraid of snakes what so ever. my husband and ex made sure of that in high school when my exs room was full of cages of snakes and other reptiles. with that being said... I have two baby snakes living under my deck and I'm not sure what kind they are. ive been searching on Google but no luck. so I thought maybe some of the outdoorsy people on here might know. here is a picture of them. if any info please id love to know what is living under my porch.    |

No problem, glad I could help. My family has land in SW Wisconsin that has a lot of different snakes native to it including timber rattlesnakes. When I was in high school none of my friends believed we had rattlesnakes in the snowy cold North, but I tried to explain they only live in the bluff lands along the Mississippi River south of the Cities on the MN and WI sides of the river and they hibernate in the rock crevices of these bluffs. They still didn't believe me, so I took out a book from the library about snake species in N. America to show them and sure enough, our area was the northernmost range of timber rattlers along the Mississippi and when you get to Missouri and parts south they exist everywhere throughout the Southlands. So, reading this book is how I learned about Dekay's brown snake. I never seen one, but I've seen tons of garter snakes, killed about 6 rattlers, and last 4th of July there was a big snake that I believe was a milk snake inside the old farm shack.  I tried to kill it but it crawled into the basement through a hole in floor for the Dryer vent duct when my grandparents lived down there. I went down to the basement and tried jabbing it with an iron rod but it crawled into the rafters where I couldn't get it. So I said fuck it and covered the hole it crawled into with a bunch of shit and didn't hang out in there until September when bow hunting season started, and by then it's too damn cold for a snake to live in the house anyways. (No working furnace, just a woodstove)

Well, some things to consider... Often, a snake or snakes are around because there is a source of food for them. And often their choice of food may be what some people consider to be real pests - like mice, or other rodents, large bugs, etc, etc... So as long as the snakes aren't venomous, aggressive towards you, in your bed, toilet, or chasing you around in home otherwise - they can be beneficial to have outdoors. They may also eat small birds like song birds, and especially bird eggs. So you may want to consider what they are preying upon, and make your choice of what to do with that consideration in mind too. Even a garter snake can be pretty brave for their size. So be careful if you decide to just move them elsewhere...

I didn't think they were venomous they don't have the right shape head. my husband keeps saying its some kind of garter snake but some kind doesn't answer my question of what kind lol.. so that's why I thought id ask here.. all I'm getting from Facebook is my family freaking out over two baby snakes no bigger around than a pencil....pussys....lol like I said I got over my fear in high school. when I find out what kind exactly they are ill make the decision on wither or not to catch and keep as a pet or just leave them outside

Look like a type of Garter snake, not poisonous, but as one myself of not liking snakes, I'd say nuke the damn things.
