What snake is this on my porch?

[rivrrts429]

I hate these fucking things!!!

 

[Tooms22]

That would be an "Arizona Hell Nope" snake.

Pretty common anywhere that has snakes.

Awe fuck me... this asshole must die then. Probably burn the whole place down and I’ll just rebuild.

I’m in Menifee so he can’t help but that’s a good idea.

 

[Brokeboatin221]

A nice pair of boots or belt snake

 

[Rondog4405]

Animal control will come relocate it .. with his head still attached

[Todd Mohr]

Shotgun seems like the right tool

[ltbaney1]

Damn you. I'm in Menifee too off Murietta & Holland. My neighbors say they've never seen a Rattler and they've been there for 35 years. I live my life as if they don't exist because I grew up where these nasty creatures don't exist. I hope him and his friends stay away....

 

[rivrrts429]

I went all Mike Tyson (his prime years) on this damn thing. My anxiety went immediately to bouncing off the internal rev-limiter when it curled up and went to rattling. if I wasn’t home and not seen it my daughter would’ve walked right there when she got home from school. That shit freaks me out.

That’s all for today folks. I’ll be back every Thursday. Don’t forget to tip your waitress lol

 

[RCDave]

Be very CAREFUL with the head,,,,,,

 

[CLdrinker]

Shit that’s my old friend Adam

 

[F.U.IRS]

You'll be watching your step everywhere you go for a while. When I was in Nuevo I would get them on the concrete close to the house a few times a year

 

[HALLETT BOY]

Just relocate him , he's not gonna chase you , they keep rodents at bay . Do what I do , feed Roadrunners , they keep Rattlesnakes away .

 

[River Runnin]

What snake is this on my porch?​

If on my porch!! A DEAD Fooker!!

 

[petie6464]

That's the live it alone snake.

Unfortunately uneducated people kill them when all they need to do is nothing. .

Throw that bastard in the instapot with some beans and the Carol Shelby chili mix

Nice work sir!!

 

[Backlash]

I was going to say skin it out and put the skin on a board....but it looks like Freddy Kruger got ahold of that sucker!

I now know I have reflexes of a cat and speed of a mongoose Don’t know why but I hate snakes with a passion.

 

[Riverbound]

As others have said be very careful of the head. They don’t die and can bite for a long time after removed from the body.

 

[USMC2010]

Carefully put the head in a glass jar. Show the neighborhood kids what a dead snake can do by shaking the jar in front of them.

Did you bite his ear off

 

[2Driver]

Yep, leave the head on. Either way glad you manned up vs calling someone.

 

[77charger]

Actually a southern pacific rattlesnake

different story obviously, but my buddy killed a gopher snake he found on his property, big f'er too. He was worried it would bite his dogs or something. Long story short, within 3 mo his lawn was totally taken over by gophers.

 

[rivrrts429]

I see king snakes and gopher snakes here a couple times a year. First time in almost 20 years living here seeing a rattler anywhere on my property.

 

[Chili Palmer]

If it rang the doorbell it’s a Southwestern Avon Rattler, they target old ladies. You should be fine by pretending nobody’s home.

King snakes are your friend.
As a kid my family and a few others rent camped in coves all along the System, Havasu, Parker, Mojave, Mead, and one thing in common.
We would get a rattler sometimes and my dad would be the one not killing it.
Catching it. Bagging it. And taking it to some other cove.

On one such trip while he’s arguing with a rattle snake and had it up in a bush.

All the women folk and @endobear dad are waist deep in the water, about to unhook the boat from anchor and just leave

One of them yells out
Oh my god there’s another one!!

While my dad is tangling with this 4ish foot rattle snake and he is making all the noise....a King snake just heard the dinner bell!
He was booking it from across camp to the rattler.
Keep them around, as startling as they may be at times.

 

[mash on it]

I see you have the new two piece design. That's the best ones.

You ruined my belt idea now you have a wallet and a watch band.

No wonder I'm traumatized.....
F-those serpent basturds. Kill Em All..
You got a rodent problem, get a Terrier, MinPin or a damn cat.

 

[endobear]

Or a road runner. ...

Still a go for the BBQ though!

 

[Brokeboatin221]

Damn straight, dad is an Eagle Scout says they taste like chicken lol.

 

[JB in so cal]

Ida called in an airstrike! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrppppppppppp

 

[Luvnlife]

Ran across another one this weekend on my mountain bike ride. Little single track goat trail and he was coiled up on the side. Didn’t see him till he moved about five feet out. Fucker didn’t move as I went by

get the wifey naked. Skin the snake and cook it in the backyard fire pit. Dinner!

Damn straight, dad is an Eagle Scout says they taste like chicken lol.

Lol. I wouldn't eat chicken if that's how it tasted. First one I killed my buddy skinned it and cooked it. He is a great cook. I had 1 bite and it didn't taste anything like the chicken I cook. I killed it not far from where is dog was bit. Hopefully it was the one. Got a few more since then. Rule of thumb is if there on the Echo side of Parker damn road. Kill them. Otherside let them be. All the ones I have got have been in the park.

 

[Drew]

Kill it and mail it to the front door as a warning to any other family members that rattle

 

[C_J_J_C]

I don’t see a snake but I do see a house on fire.

 

[spectra3279]

If it was my porch, a dead one
