there are plenty of nasty bastards in Tenn in the snake world. You have two species of rattlers, plus copperheads and cottonmouths.
On the other hand you probably have a couple dozen non-poisonous snakes.
The thing is, even the non-poisonous snakes can cause problems because they'll still bite you and the bite can become infected - in addition to the fact that it hurts like hell. I tend to leave 'em alone unless there's no choice, and then I either scoop 'em into a box and move 'em where I want 'em or, if they're vipers, I kill 'em.
