In Indiana we have about 35 snake species. Only four of these species are venomous. Most snakes that you find in your yard are harmless. Garter snakes are one of the most commonly seen snake. The garter snake is perfectly harmless and very beneficial. Garter snakes are easily recognized because they have distinguishing horizontal stripes that run the length of their body. These snakes can be several different colors ranging from green to yellow to brown. See similar questions...

There are any number of possibilities--including your neighbor's escaped pet boa constrictor!--but certain kinds of snakes show up in Sonoran Desert backyards much more frequently than others. Check these descriptions first. Rattlesnakes (Crotalus species) Forget what you may have heard about rattlesnakes having triangular heads--some other desert snakes fit that description. And forget about diamond-shaped markings--not all rattlesnakes have them, and some other snakes do. See similar questions...

First, you should immediately find out what the laws regarding wildlife are in your jurisdiction: in many places, it’s illegal to catch virtually any wild animal. Second, you should find out what species it is. For one thing, you may have a species that is endangered, threatened or otherwise protected by your state, provincial or national government. For another, how you take care of the animal depends on which animal it is. See similar questions...

Try to leave the snake alone. The vast majority of snakes in our area are completely harmless and cannot hurt you. The only local venomous snake is the copperhead which is usually a non-aggressive animal. If you feel you must move the snake, try to move it the shortest possible distance away from human activity. Attempt to keep it calm and unharmed. For assistance in identifying snakes contact one of our Nature Centers or visit the Virginia Herpetological Society web site. See similar questions...

Raccoons, fox, skunk and bats are the most common in this area. Opossums and other rodents such as squirrels, chipmunks, mice, et cetera very rarely carry rabies.. I have a problem with wild animals in my garage and/or around my animals. See similar questions...

My floating-point calculations are acting strangely and giving me different answers on different machines. I'm trying to do some simple trig, and I am #including <math.h>, but I keep getting ''undefined: _sin'' compilation errors. You forgot to define the sin() function. Most math texts should cover it in some detail. The easiest way to fix this should be: double sin(double x) { return sqrt(1 - cos(x) * cos(x)); } See similar questions...

Many greyhounds live in small apartments with no yard, but their owners are committed to 2-3 short walks and 1-2 long walks a day. Your level of commitment must be able to handle your living situation. See similar questions...

First of all, chances are extremely low that you'd ever get spores in your house. If you did, the spores would be very difficult to kill. But that's OK. The spores exist naturally throughout the United States. They're out there, along with many benign vacteria and other, virulent bacteria. See similar questions...

I decided to ask him about some of the instruments listed on the album's liner, with such exotic appellations as "snake guitar, "digital guitar," and "desert guitars." In the case of the first, for instance, I had often thought that given Eno's reputation it would not be out of the question for him to lay a guitar down in the middle of the recording studio and tape the sound of a reptile belly crawling slowly across the strings. He laughed. See similar questions...

After a rain (or even after a thorough watering) blind snakes sometimes are found in a person&Mac226;s house. Adults are rarely more than 4 inches long, and appear to be worm-like, with tiny black dots for eyes. They eat termites, and can not bite a human. Just take them back outside and let them go.

Be aware of lead poisoning from paint. Was your house built before 1978? Test for lead-based paint. Glass: Always have both first aid kit and Ipecac available, but do not use unless told to do so by your doctor or a medical professional. Be sure car seats are properly installed and belts adjusted properly. Read both the car seat manufacturer's directions and your vehicle owner's manual.

Generally the insurance responsibility lies with whoever's property is damaged. In other words, if a tree falls on your home, no matter where the tree came from, your insurance company should pay for your home repair. An exception would be if the damage occurred as a result of negligence; for instance, if the tree was dead before it fell, and you had proof that your neighbor knew the tree was dead. Under those circumstances, the damage becomes your neighbor's liability. See similar questions...

Greyhounds are sprinters, and expend all their energy in little bursts. In fact, with just a few minutes of sprinting a couple of times a week, all a greyhound needs is a long daily walk. Trust us, no house is large enough for a greyhound to really exercise in, so the size of your house or apartment does not matter. This is especially true as sprinters spend the better part of the day preparing to sprint (sleeping). See similar questions...

In most cases it is very difficult to identify an insect over the phone. If you need it identified catch it in a container with a tight fitting lid. Then, please call ODA (1-800-525-0137) to obtain details on preserving and sending the insect(s) for identification. After you call and receive mailing instructions, you may send samples to the Oregon Department of Agriculture, Plant Division, IPPM, 635 Capitol St. NE, Salem OR 97301. An ODA entomologist will examine it and contact you. See similar questions...
