Unless things have changed there are no Copperheads this far west unless you consider some areas of Texas.We have cotton mouths here, but except for the garage, none have gotten in the house.
Except for the occasional rattler that might wander in an open door, I think the only poisonous snakes you have to worry about getting into buildings are the copperheads. And they can be terrible.
Pretty much most snakes in the US are not "aggressive" with the exception being the Copperhead, they can be downright nasty. Luckily I've only had a couple of run ins with Copperheads and the last one was one that was anything but aggressive, it had been hiding in a pile of mulch when the landscapers were spreading it in the townhouse complex. It had been skewed with a pitchfork and had curled itself up under a bush behind our house. Lucky it was injured cause the wife discovered it when she picked up a piece of trash right next to it.We have had only one rattler in our backyard since we have lived here.
Hubby killed it with one shot to it's head with his pistol.
We have had more tarantulas walking into the house when you open the door. It also does not happen all that often though.
No big deal. I just pick it up gently and put it back outside. They are not aggressive spiders unless they feel threated.

Checked the reviews and decided on the 2 even though it uses AV cables instead of the HDMI cable, everyone who professionally reviewed it says it's just as fast as the 3. Got mine for $50 on Amazon.Ordered a Roku 2 (basically just as fast as the Roku 3 but cheaper) and a highly rated indoor digital antenna, think I'll get myself a TV for my birthday........
We got a Roku 3 for the USB port. The 2 doesn't have one.
Am thinking about a 39" HDTV (Vizio), Sears (yeah, I know, I know.....) has one for $189 with free shipping. Have to see if their online shipping is just as slow as their home delivery service before I order it.......
Why a 39"? It's the biggest that will fit in our Oriental TV cabinet though I could leave the 26" that's in there now and wall mount a 50" in the living room....... Decisions, decisions......
I wanted to have the ability to play files from an external source, hence the USB.
I had been considering getting myself a new TV for my birthday, but now that I don't know if getting a broadcast signal is viable here, I may just save my money.
You could hook up your TV through your computer and then get Netflix and or hulu plus or any of the other channels you might watch right from their own websites.

I was on the outskirts of Green Cove Springs, right off the St Johns, lot's of backwoods swamps around it.Never had any run ins with dangerous snakes while I lived in Florida. That was in Tampa, though, which is not exactly the backwoods swamp.
Nope. It is sometime this year though.......Is today your birthday, Ringel?

I recommend having a shotgun in snake country, because you cannot miss. Whereas you have to be a good shot to hit it with a pistol.
I had a pet European grass snake when I was a boy but it was very aggressive and lunged at me every time I passed the tank I kept it in. Then I had to feed it, and it only ate baby frogs. I used to go to the common and catch baby frogs for it until I found out that they scream when they are being eaten feet first. I listened to a few frogs screaming then decided to let the snake go on the common to catch its own frogs. I introduced an unnatural species to the environment, I just hope it was not a pregnant female.
