PE - camping in snake country

[Cherie Nolan]

In the area's of texas, we have a really bad time with copper heads and rattle snakes. As well as cotton mouths. I have heard that some of these area's use "snake rid" it
something you put on the ground around the area you are camping and it stops snakes from coming around. Not sure of where to get it or any of the details. but have talk to
a couple of chirurgeons that says it really works. You bite want to call a local sporting goods store and ask them. there is also plants and flowers I heard that runs them
the other way as well. 
By the way we now have about 145 people on the list. Thank you for joining and adding in the list. please feel free to add to the information on the list if you see some
thing that we would like to see or learn about please let us know. Thank you!

Marguerite List Master and very sick YUCK!
