I can honestly say, i dont "think" I really fear them, I just plain dont like them, period. I can walk up on one and not be afraid, but still kill it, I was always brought up with Dad and Papa killing snakes and such so I guess i took that with me, and now I kill them, but I have yet to come accross a poisonous one that I know of, and I bet I'll get a little nervous
right before I kill it.
To each his own... right?
