It's that time of year again!
This is the time of year when the new Rat Snakes are hatching. You'll see them popping up any and everywhere. But, please, PLEASE, people, be gentle with these new babies. They are completely harmless and very beneficial to us. If you notice these little guys squirming around, that means that you have Momma somewhere close by. And Momma will keep the mice population down, snag a mole or three and even keep the Copperheads away.
So if you see these little guys or happen to spot Momma hanging out, consider yourself lucky! You'll have no worries of mice or the dreaded Copperhead near you!
If you should see this little guy inside your home, Just pick him up, GENTLY, and carry him outside. He CAN NOT hurt you in any way. Later, when you realize that you've not seen a mouse in ages, you'll be glad that they are around.
