Guess I have kind of a dbl standard. Black,rat or corn type snakes are welcome around my yard. Vipers like rattle,coral or cotton mouth would be shot on site. (never had one NE OH. but I have in other places I've lived.)
Kinda like Chipmunks... Cute in the woods but you sure don't want them in the walls or foundation of your house.

Yep I let the rat snakes go most of the time.
