If it were regular, run of the mill type snake, I probably would have just let it be. But the fact that it was a copperhead and therefore poisonous, changes the outcome for me. I probably would have killed it or asked my husband too. I live in a busy neighborhood with lots of little kids including my own 1-year old and don't like the idea of leaving it until someone else came to take it away, because that probably wouldn't happen around here. I could call a number of places but I doubt anyone would come to relocate the snake.

I wouldn't feel great about it, but I think I would do it.
