Never saw copperheads around lake; but has in town Click on headline for item with photograph entered in evidence Sheila Wood writes, I am sending this message to make my new neighbors aware of the very large copperhead snake I found on my patio today (May 28, 2012). I am new to Rice Drive. This snake is every bit of 3 foot long. This concerns me since my whole patio is concrete, and we have a clean yard and so do my neighbors. I am concerned for children and any of my neighbors. We just moved from the lake area never saw a snake there. And now: move to town, and surprise!- Sheila WoodThanks, Sheila Wood, for the information. Wonder if anyone else has pictures or information about copperheads or rattlers, the two common poisonous snakes in this area. One rarely hears of a bite here, but residents do need to know about the habits and habitats of the creatures, and to give them ground. They do control rodents, and that, in turn, controls deer ticks, and that in turn keeps down Lyme disease, so God had probably thought this one through pretty well. Education is the important mesage here, I'd think. - EW This story was posted on 2012-05-29 01:37:37
