Ever find one of these in your garage? (rattlesnake)

[GPR1500SC]

So it’s a personal thing. I love reptiles. Always have. There is enough room for him and me both up here in rural N/E AZ.

I relocated a small garden snake last week much to my wife's displeasure I for the most part leave them alone except for water snakes Thankfully poisonous snakes are very rare in are imediate area.

Snakes don't bother me, now ticks and chiggers are another story! HA!

We discussed relocation, but I held my ground.

My boss is out of town on a job...he calls me and says his wife sees a snake in the garage and doesn't want the little kids to get bit. So I run over to check it out, and it's a Prairie Rattlesnake. We don't see them often - first time I've seen one in my life - so it was cool. Yes, I let it go outside of town.

We use to catch them all the time at PIR and they would release in the desert. the other end of the track. my biggest scare was the dirty hairy scorpions they are huge and I had to do building inspection. 1st be careful opening any door. They like to lay underneath them. 2nd be careful when you get out of your car. Next keep your eyes open for scorpions and black widows. "challenging"

We don’t have many scorpions up here. At least not the big ones.

I was on a fire detail in AZ 15 years ago and got to see them first hand. I slept on top of my sleeping bag in my tent. Other folks just slept on the truck but I was the rookie so I got to sleep on the ground.

I have killed several Timber rattlers just shy of 5' and as big around as a baseball/softball here at the house. They get relocated to a "better place" PDQ but the non-poisonous I leave them be.
