Found this little guy right outside my back door. Wanting to limit any risk to my family, I called my friend Richard Linley with NorthEast Exterminating LLC. I asked him what I could buy to prevent snakes. He replied, "The best way to prevent snakes is to keep your grass cut low. They don't like to be out in the open." I'm not sure if he intended it to be, but that's a sermon and some of the best advice I've ever received. #ThatWillPreach
