Snakes in the garden...kill 'em or keep 'em?

Sounds to me like (yep, I know...) brown snakes... they're not a large species, (about 20 inches is maximum if I'm not mistaken)... your best bet would be to learn to identify your local venomous species on sight, if I'm not right about it being brown snakes (these are not to be confused with the Australian brown snake, these are highly venomous), perhaps this site can help you: a href="http://www.herpsofarkansas.com/Snake/HomePage" rel="nofollow"http://www.herpsofarkansas.com/Snake/Hom…/a
