GARDEN SNAKES - (Pros and Cons)

Most gardeners don't see garden snakes because they blend in with the environment. You'll know their presence from leftover discarded skins.

Garden snakes eat slugs, Japanese beetles and small rodents that feed on vegetables or flowers. They will eat whatever insects are available and will depart when the garden food is gone.

Never approach or tamper with ANY snakes. They may be poisonous. They will bite if, accidentally, disturbed or they don't have an easy way out. To remove snakes from your yard, consider using a pest removal service.

The Garter snake is the most common garden snake. It's non-poisonous. It loves ponds, forests, fields and yards. It commonly has three yellow horizontal stripes. It eats earthworms, frogs and fish. It hides when afraid.

Gopher snakes are burrowing snakes. They're non-poisonous and often mistaken for rattlesnakes. They eat small animals, like gophers. They can slither on the ground or in trees.
