With the corn fields being harvested around these parts, we have to watch for 'country snakes' everywhere. So far this year, I've seen several harmless garden snakes...and a couple large poisonous country snakes. If I'm not freaking out at the snakes, I'm flipping out at the spiders.... especially the big hairy ones I've found lately and the Black Widows. Makes me not wanna go barefoot anymore.

LOL! The last place I lived was smack dab in the middle of grain fields... alternated yearly between corn and soy ( wheat was beforehand) and EVERY year for 16 years when the corn got cut... first came the onslaught of field mice to be quickly followed by the snakes chasing the mice! It was like a three week menagerie/ nightmare every year. Ya get used to it after a while, but I tell ya, I'm not sure my lady could have dealt with another year of the snakes...

Good luck! Your area has brown recluse also, so do be careful with the spideys!
