Killed a rattlesnake this morning. Before you get your panties in a knot - I kill any rattlesnake I see here because they can kill me. Just so you know - in almost 10 years of living out here, I only see and kill about 2 rattlesnakes a year. And as for rodent control.killing one rattlesnake does not effect the rodent population. A rattlesnake eats about one mouse per week. A female mouse gives birth to over 50 mice per year - so unless your rattlesnake is only eating pregnant females, a single rattlesnake has little effect on the overall rodent population.
