All ya fuggin' idiots out there killin' every snake you see are much like the chinks who were told to kill every bird so that they wouldn't eat the grains... then the locust population exploded and ate more grain than the birds did. Nature is about balance. If it's within your curtilage, sure... but otherwise move around it/move it to another area, or continue to be a emotional thinker rather than a logical one and kill every one because it makes you FEEL better..
