We were out and about in the ATV, when I saw this long shiny stick across the road.. move.... Big old long black snake. Good snake, he turned and went the other way. 馃槻
For years (like, twelve years), we found black snake skins in our house. Once in a Swedish ivy above the sink, draped over the heating pipes in the basement...but never once saw the snake.
@Mamapolo2016 Me too. Here in my woman's cave/basement, every year, a snake will leave their skin behind. At first it scared me.. then I discovered they were shy and scared of human. They kill bad snakes and eat lots of mice. We have several here. A few huge Rat snakes and many ring-neck black snakes/King snakes. Last year we killed 3 Copperheads, now that WAS scary.
