Rainy Season Comes with Snakes

It is a planting season of the year here in Kenya. Every farmer is either busy preparing land or planting. It rains daily; at times twice a day. The biggest challenge of the se season is that many snakes tend to be around homesteads seeking shelter from extreme wet conditions in the fields. In the past week I had to remove at least three snakes that were trying to access my hut. I killed none because according to my study, their heads were not the ones of venomous type. I just guided them back to a nearby thicket. Do rainy seasons come with snakes’ visitations in your locality? How do you treat them in case they visit?

Yeah, because of the wet environment where the snakes live. They are In the hunt of a dry place.

Sure, but are most of them really venomous?

We usually don't get those kind of rains. And I have plenty of places that they can hide

We don't see them where we live now but on our acreage I used to kill them if they were near the house.
