Your fears are all in your head, because there is no such thing as a HUGE garter snake, lol. Garter snakes will most like slither away when you get close, they only bite if you pick them up, and usually don't even bite then, and it doesn't hurt. I used to play with them all the time when I was a kid.

creeeeepy

start an egg farm in your backyard... the roosters will tear up the snakes.

now to avoid the shit all over the backyard lol

I suppose thats the adantage of living in a mild climate - we rarley ever see any of these bugs / creepy stuff and if we do they are like 1/4 the size of yours :helpme

put moth balls around your yard they will go away they hate moth balls

when we go fishing in certain lakes we put them in out boots cause of the water snakes

i think getting a mongoose is the coolest idea in this thread so far.

rikki tikki taffy :D

I hate snakes.

Sounds like you need to buck up and face your fear... only way you'll get over it.

if anything garter snakes are a good thing...

Fifty..,.....

We ended up "taking out", in other words, 2 four and a half foot rattlers in the Sequia Mountains last weeknd. Both were trying to mate. So we stopped them. LOL. one of the had 14 rattles and the other had 12 rattles. plus, one of them tried to strike at me. Took care of that fucker.

shouldnt you change these posts to "fifty one..,,...." now?

Drowning is a pretty fucked up feeling. I "drowned" twice during Marine Corps water survival instructor training (you're allowed to drown out three times and still pass to become an instructor).

Falling to my death - meh, It's not a bad way to go, it would be quick.

Being buried would be pretty horrific... but you would just pass out from the lack of oxygen.

Being burned alive is probly the worst way to go... you're going to FEEL that.

Im sure one of the companies out there do that stuff. I was getting all kinds of flyers at the end of winter about them doing my lawn and then pest control etc... so Im sure someone in the west island does it for a good price.

Don't you watch the croc hunter? be kind! snakes help prevent pests... :( poor snake... dead for living.

Aww, its kinda cute. It wants to cuddle with you.

nice.... really nice. interesting.. :winkwink:

That actually works great..had to do that cause of a problem I had here..

Looks like a bitch I use to date

Snakes give me the creeps aswell :(

Any bets on what type of fucked up dream I will have tonight? ;-)

garter snakes rule... they eat all kinds of nasty shit so you don't have to see it. Don't kill em if you can avoid it. try to get over your fear. most snakes in the us are harmless. Oh.. by the way.. Mesh? it better be super small or these guys will get right through it.

They scare the crap out of me too :(

Apparently drowning is a peaceful way to die :2 cents:
