SNAKE IN OUR BACKYARD! SCARING KATHLEEN WITH A REAL SNAKE!!

There was a snake right by our pool this morning. When i poked it with a our Pool Pole he took an aggressive stance and was ready to fight! I just moved here to Florida and i didn't want it escaping to later bite my kids as i saw it was not running from me. I had to subdue the snake to find out later he was actually a "Corn Snake" or rat snake who catches rats and other small rodents etc. Please everyone take note that these are good snakes and we should not kill them. Thank you.
