I fear from snakes if they are real and poisonous. Sometimes their teeth are taken out and some people use them to show in the public. Although these snakes are not dangerous anymore but they get a lot of attention from people. If I know that the snake is not dangerous anymore I don't have fear. Some people fear of such snakes also.

Hello sanjay,
I fear snakes too. I find them disgusting, lol. For some reason i hate them, i hate them more than i fear them. But, sometimes i am fascinated to see them, like crossing the road somewhere. I approach snakes, but after they get into the bush, there is no going in because we don't know where it is and you don't ever want to be bitten by one coz you never know if it's poisonous or not just by seeing in a glimpse! If they are in my home i would want to kill them. I have a friend, who has killed a snake before and i would want to kill one too. Of course only if it's somewhere near my house. You can't let them stray near your house! I don't pity them, although they are only harmful if they feel threatened. I have never killed a snake, however i can approach them to some extent. Like in most cases i have seen snakes and they are pretty shy to stay on the road and they would hide as soon as possible. I never to see a loose snake from near, and i would be excited to see one, but kill it? I don't know.

Hi Voldrox, Well you want to kill a snake then go on, I am not coming to stop you. Don't get bitten by snake. If the snake is near the house then it is very dangerous especially for children. I have cousin who was behind the tail of snake to catch him. He was observed soon and I think that is why he is alive today. Snake bite when he is angry with your activities of disturbing him, threatening him. So please take care.

I had never heard of people taking the fangs out of snakes. I guess that makes them nondangerous but I am trained mentally to avoid certain colors and designs on snakes and I don't think I could override that natural instinct!

I'm also afraid of snakes. Saw a show in Discovery channel about someone who got bitten by one and it wasn't pretty at all. Certainly don't want to go through what he went through. Lol

It is natural for a person to get afraid of snakes. In case you know that snake is not harmful then why should you fear about?

I don't fear pet snakes but I do fear wild ones. My son had an albino boa for years and he was harmless. But, we live in the country in Florida where there is a lot of water so we see snakes on our property from time to time. Most recently a cottonmouth, which is not only poisonous, but aggressive, so it was killed the minute it was spotted.

It is wise to kill a snake if it is found near your home. It is dangerous if it enter inside.

Very true, I have seen many snakes in my path. Sometimes they will cross through your feet and not harm you. If you do something non sense under your fear, then they also get the fear and they attack. Thank you for response
