I'd take snakes over skeeters, ticks and chiggers any day.
Every now and then would be way too much! Also, I'd give a snake all the space it wants! IF I see it first! The main issue I have is they are just too easy to not see until it's too late. I've had them crawl across my foot while bank fishing. Somehow I didn't freak out but thinking about it now I do. Call me a wussy or whatever you want but if I had to contend with snakes like some of you guys I just wouldn't hunt that area. I'd hunt out of state if I had to. And I lived in south Florida where all those pythons are I believe I'd be carrying a flame thrower.
