Today, we had a deck built for our pool. It is 12x12 with a bench on one side. We will stain it white/gray in a few weeks. As we were getting ready for dinner, Dan noticed 2 black snakes wrapped up together between the two trees next to our house. We moved our dinner into the house. The snakes stayed in the grass wrestling for a while, then slithered toward the tree. They then disappeared. We visited our neighbors across the road instead of going back in our yard.
Earlier in the day, someone came behind the fence on the right of way with the weed eater, then he sprayed a chemical on the weeds. We think that caused the snakes to come into the yard. The former owner told us we would get snakes in the trees. We can't stand this. We tried to tell Grace to run away from snakes if she sees them. When we asked, "What do you do if you see a snake?' she replies "Go away". We think this is what she plans to tell the snake if she sees one. We'll just let her handle it.
