One of my neighbors had a copperhead nest in their firewood. They had professionals come get them last spring. We've had several encounters with copperhead snakes and a few with rattlers (we obviously know what those look like). We have a guy that lives across the street from us that is a snake fanatic...unfortunately he's away on business this week. We live in TX by a lot of land, small ponds and now our city is growing rapidly and it's flushing all the critters our way. People that don't know much about snakes (and terrified of them) and know there has been several encounters with venomous ones can't be expected to stick around long enough to find out what it is. I, personally, get the heebeegeebees from snakes but I wouldn't have the balls to get close enough to kill one. I just take off screaming like a little girl lol.
I hope I didn't offend y'all by posting this. I was just curious to know what it is and see if we have another nest somewhere close. I have 3 kids all under the age of 6 and 2 dogs that play outside nearly everyday. I just wanted to know what we were dealing with.
Again, my apologies if I offended y'all
