We haven't seen any yet this year, but that doesn't mean they are there. I have heard that when you kill one you should hang its body somewhere near where you killed it as a warning to other snakes....this will only work if you don't have dogs who will want to eat it....thus I haven't tried it to see if it works. Neither of our dogs has gotten tagged by a copperhead yet this year so that is a good sign for us! We will remain diligent still as we wander through the undergrowth. Great reminder!!
