The most scary thing is that some very poisones Australian (some in South Africa as well) look much like some harmless snakes in the U.S.A.

Soooo...That's where St. Patrick sent all those snakes.
We get to claim the Diamond Back Rattle Snake. Don't know about the Eastern variety, but the Western Diamond Back can reach as much as 6 feet in length.

What brand to you recommend? Does it come as a roll-on or spray - pump or aerosol?

I use my 45/410 derringer as snake remover with the heavy field loads of #7 shot. I haven't met a snake yet that could swallow that.

Great photos Vince
Got to love the green tree frogs
The smallest carpet snakes I have seen here are about 6'
Take care next time you go to step over a fence

thats a interesting variaty of barbed wire.......that would work well around prisons.....actually you might be on to something there Vince........ I hear Donald is about to build a plurry great long wall,that type of wire would be most effective in detering illegals from crossing and any that tried would take care of the feeding issues/requirements.
