I know that this is the time of year the babies are born, but I want to know how to get them out of the flowering bushes in my back yard.  This merry widow stuff is for the birds!!  If someone has a remedy that does not have me putting my hands where he/she is .. I am all for it.  Yesterday as I looked out the window he/she was looking back in at me .. gag!!

How about snakes?
I found a little small snake in the house in December, it got away before I could get it and we haven't seen it since.
Help! Snakes!

Snake in the heat/air vent.  His head was right at the vent exploring to see if he could fit through but he's too big I think.   Anybody know what to do?  He's disappeared now so worried where he went to and if there are more.  Thanks.


Keep snakes away!!
Sprinkle some moth crystals around in your flower beds around your house and the snakes won't come around. This worked for me!

Good Luck!
You must not have snakes around...
I have lots and it's extremely unnerving to see, step on, or work in the garden and have one slither away from where you just had your hand.  We do have poisonous ones too.  If there were anyway to get rid of them, I certainly would.  Unfortunately, some snakes do "hold their ground" and will bite if you unknowingly bother them.  I had one fall off the roof onto my glider right where I had been sitting a few minutes before.  He was trying to get to the bird house hanging near by.  Needless to say, I moved the birdhouse away from the house. 
I don't like snakes either.
May seem odd, since I have 5 PET geckos... but they have legs. Big difference. There's just something WRONG about anything that can move without benefit of limbs....

Comedian Bill Engvall talked about being afraid of snakes. "Snakes are of the devil. It's in the Bible. Look it up."

One time back in my teens, before we knew what we know now about skin cancer and sun damage, I was sunbathing in the back hard, opened my eyes, and found myself nose to nose with a 3-foot black and white king snake. Perfectly harmless--but I think I jumped about a mile straight up in the air!

snakes
We had a couple of snakes that got into our church (found and sealed up the holes). However, I found out they have large sticky traps like they use for mice that are for snakes. Maybe that would do the job. Good luck. I don't like to kill snakes, but if they are invading my space, then so be it.
killing snakes
If an animal is endangering my life, of course, I will probably have to kill it, snakes included, of which we have many out here.  If I was on an island, just me and a chicken, of course, I would eat it.  My take is that, as long as there is other healthier food, I will continue to eat that, veggies, grains, fruits, and leave the animals to live their lives.
Hating Snakes
I would be totally freaking out too! Find it and kill it. I'd go to a hotel until you find the thing. Like you, I would be way scared. I hope that you find it, but in the meantime, you certainly have my sympathies.
I'm in NC too! We have good & bad snakes, unfortunately.
Don't take any chances. Call somebody. They won't kill it because the State law won't permit them to here, but will attempt to remove it for you (for $, of course!). Good luck!
Snakes .. continued
Well, finally ventured out to finish putting the flowers in and (btw I am in Florida) so every nasty thing is here along with me in the yard probably ;-) but have not seen it again.  I am sure it is in the bushes for protection and I am just concerned that the mommy is nearby and wants to bite my face off for screaming so loud when I saw it!!  From what I gather, it could be just a black variety of nonpoisonous whatever they are or it could have been a rattler because there used to be orange groves everywhere .. and it could be water because I live across the street from the bayou.  The dog pooped today on my brand new den carpet .. you should have been here for that war dance and yoddling display!!  Mama mia!
nah, just snakes.....and spiders.....and roaches
nm
I absolutely hate snakes.
And spiders. Anyway, 5 years ago we had just moved to a different house. I was sitting on the ground on the south side planting some bulbs. Just sitting indian style, enjoying the weather. Well, I got my 2nd bulb in and picked up my pack of bulbs and went to move over to plan another and there was a snake coiled up on my sandal. I flipped. All my bulbs went flying in the air, along with my little shovel. I screamed. The thing was probably not even 2 feet long, I didn't care. Anyway, my neighbor and her friend came and chased it away for me. At the time, they were 8 and 9. lol
there is an advantage having black snakes
in the basement, as they eat rodents. So keep this in mind.
What do you prefer? Rodents or black snakes?

I just hate both, but if I had to choose I would choose the black snake.
all this talk about snakes and guess what..
the dogs had cornered when we got home from town today.. geez. a stinking snake..went down to see the dogs in the pin were going crazy, yard dog was even down there barking.. he always greets us when we get back home, so I knew something was there, went & looked, it wasn't a black snake, kinda grayish.. so went back to the house, then went back again & the stinking thing had its neck spread like a cobra, and then it hissed at me, creeped me out and sent chills all the way down, so back to the house I went, dh got home, went out to tell him, he went & got the shovel, that things head was almost diamond shaped it was evil looking, dh got it on the shovel & I think he was going to pitch it over in the woods, but then it held that evil lookin head up & hissed at him, it fell off the shovel & he killed it.. heard it was a spread adder, here people call them spreadenadder.. lol.. needles to say, Thank God it's gone..
Snakes do a lot of good in nature, most are harmless.

poster is wrong - snakes do have feelings...N/M

All diamond-shaped heads are poisonous snakes! I do know that! nm

YUCK
I agree. I like it nice and cool. My pocketbook likes it a little warmer. :-)

yuck...
I eat red meat, pork but mostly chicken.

If you don't want to red meat, that's cool. But, word of warning to you - many begetarians think they are eating heathfully because they cut out meat, but in fact, vegans often have high cholesterol counts because they eat so many dairy foods. They also often fry foods - you would be better off eating an 8 oz steak than eating a couple of batter dripped deep fried cheese stick.

Please watch the fat content of your food.

Good health to you!
Yuck/LOL..... what??
Was that one liner in response to my post Yuck????  What???? are you tongue tied Yucky yuck upchuck?????  I didnt ask about your overweight issues Yuck.. .. Sorry that you have them.   Try weight watchers.  I have heard they help.  But Yuck.... who will help you get a personality???? GEEZ  whatever will the Yuckster do????  
Come on now Yuck...

Let it all out Yuck/LOL.  I know you have been showing multiple personalities on here.... but we see through that and we hear your pain Yuckie duckie.  Dont worry, your husband just probably couldnt stand it anymore.... I mean, we've only known you a few short hours and already can't stand you.... So, it's okay.  Some people are only human....  Yuckiity doooo.  I know you can't comprehend that either, but just nod your big head and pretend.... you're good at that.  Now, Yuck, lets talk about the pimples, the flour that you've been rolled in, your need to insult others and chalk it up to having fun..... when did this all start????   How is the bed wetting??  Is it still as frequent???


Yuck
Yuck - go play in traffic!
Yuck
Well, there ya go person posting as Yuck.  I got on this forum tonight to check out a company.  When I read the posts on here from you about the administrator of this board and all your other posts in response to other people, I was really taken aback.  Many MTs have posted in response to you, asking you nicely/professionally/maturally to please stop.  You are insulting, demeaning, critical, nasty, rude and very hurtful in your posts.  I was/am outraged and amazed at the things you have said on here.  All my posts to you are what you have put out there to us.  Kind of funny how when someone starts saying nasty (and I didnt even call you any vulgar names like you did) things back to you, being critical and hurtful back to you, you all of a sudden do not have a lot to say.  It doesnt feel real good does it?  What you do in fun can actually be very damaging to someone else.  I am glad that you seem taken aback by my posts to you.  That was the point.  I wish that you would stop and really think about what your words may mean to someone else.  That someone else is a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister.  Have you any of those?  How would you like it if any of your family was treated the way you have treated us tonight?  Especially the admin of this board.  How awful of you to talk that way about this person.  This forum is here as a courtesy to us.  Why are you abusing it?
Yuck....
I work every single weekend for the next year.  That is my companies policy for newbies...... boo!
yuck!
I hope you get your old one back...or another good new one!
Yuck
Why do I have to listen to this doc sucking up his snots through his nose while he is dictating? Can't he just take a break and blow his nose. It's making me sick to my stomach.
Yuck...
This was my experience a few years ago...Overall, the people were nice but I encountered my first and only QA Nazi there. Right off the bat, she introduced herself as having 30+ years of experience (compared to 14+) for me. That should have been my first red flag because who throws that into their introduction. I certainly did not state my years of experience as part of my introduction. Anyhow, I just chose to ignore it and give it all I had. All of the other QA were so nice and then I got HER.... It was, "you missed a tense" as in past tense such as a discharge summary in which most of it was dictated with past tense i.e. was, did etc. Well, excuse me, I missed one because I just get in the habit sometimes of typing what the physician states instead of correcting everything they say. I felt totally nitpicked and the final straw was when she told me that it was wasting their money having me because I was having to be on QA. EXCUSE ME.. what is QA supposed to be doing but QA-ing the new people. Never in my life has anyone told me that I was wasting their time and money. I was insulted. No, I am not perfect but I also was NOT a newbie and did not feel like I was looking to them for guidance on how to do transcription. So, that being said, I'd have to give them a thumbs down. It's a shame because the manager and the other QA people were quite nice but she had obviously been in the business too long, old and burned out, which ruins it for everyone else.
Yuck, I don't eat red meat, but (sm)

do eat some chicken for more protein.  Also eat lots of fruit with cottage cheese and lots of green, leafy vegetables.  Also, a way to get more protein is nuts, like cashews or almonds and feta cheese with your salads.


For lunch today is pasta with some cheese biscuits with garlic salt, also a green salad with feta cheese.  Melons with cottage cheese for a snack.  No meat at all and I don't miss it!  You get used to it.


Come on Yuckie Yuck
Dont you have any new, original material?  Your insults are old and boring.  Old, fat, pimply, blah blah.  We've heard it all from you already.  Why don't you take a break and sleep on it.  Maybe in the morning you'll have a better come back.  Maybe you'll wake up and finally find an excuse for yourself, or you can pretend that you actually have a reason to be breathing the air that you breath.  or maybe you can pretend that your are NOT really just a waste of space, a stain on the floor.  A Loooohoooooser.  Come on cheesyball, you're having fun here, right?????  So, whatcha got????
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, NOW SHE'S ACTING OUT.
YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED
, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED, YUCK WAS MOLESTED AND NOW SHE'S ACTING OUT.
If that is Yuck's club no thanks
her idea of cool is sitting and popping her pimples all day and then having her husband pop the ones on her fat butt all night.  That is why he left ya know.   Well, one of the reasons anyway. 
I found YUCK...
You know, posting as LOL doesnt fool us Yuck.  We know you are one in the same.  I think it is a Sybil complex.  Listen, I know you have many personalities, but try to keep them all on the same page so that you make sense, okay?  By the way, does daddy like Yuck or LOL better?
Family. Yuck!
I just don't work with friends or family. Period!
I saw that on TV, too, last night. Yuck! nm

You can look it up on McDonalds on the web. YUCK

Not only do they taste awful (I tried a bite once - yuck), they have 560 calories, 21 grams of fat, etc., etc., but what people don't even look at is the SODIUM!


Sodium in these bad boys is 1260!!!


And people EAT this junk?


reply to yuck
Hey, they are always going to be out there. You live and learn just like we all did.
People actually advertise with "no experience necessary" you too can be an MT!
Oh yuck, I hate that, too.
a
doctors.. yuck
Every problem that MTs and MTSOs have is because the CEOs and underlings are so terribly scared to say anything to the doctors... they are SAINTS you know... NOT !!!!! It totally disgusts me... only good thingfor us is that the medical field is where the money is today and we need our jobs so we put up with the bullsh-t.
yuck, i will never like c-phones...sm
No matter what i ever tried, the footpedal with a Cphone is just awful....I wonder why companies still use this antiquated hot mess.
Yuck! I am used to the 90s here but over 95 gets a bit too toasty--keep as cool as you can! - nm

That was pretty LAMO again Yuck
That's the best you can do????  WOW, I am so skinnyfully flattened and pimple-less YUCKSTER.  Come on now, you were having fun remember????  You got on here and started calling our admin of this forum all kinds of nasty things and saying all kinds of vulgar things, not to mention a few bad words.... and it was FUN remember?????   Yuckie duckie need to pluckie????   Come on now,  just go pluck your unibrow and get to the dentist for the overbite and things will work out Yuck/LOL.  If you do that, you won't look like a cavegirl anymore and maybe the girl next door wont look so sexy to your husband.  Oh, also most guys like it if you shave under your arms Yuck.  Sorry mamma never told you that, but its time you knew. 
YUCK'S MOTHER ATE THE DIARRHEA?...nm

nm


The bad thing about YUCK being molested
is that her mother knew all along. Her mother didn't want to be bothered with her dad so she encouraged YUCK's daddy to go pop that young cherry. talk about cherry pickin'. He picked and popped hers every time.
Just searched and yuck is right! How digusting. nm

Elavil hahaha YUCK

for the first few days went to work in a very good mood, almost tipsy!! 


   


Surprisingly, I did not care for that feeling!


I had to take it in the morning or else I could not fall asleep!! I have ADD so that might account for the reason I need to take all meds similar to Elavil in the morning.
