Snakes in Northern California

Recommended Posts

Saturday long bike ride meeda podamani took the bike trail from Folsom to Sacramento, 2 miles into the ride almost ran into a massive rattlesnake with a shining back(maybe diamond back rattlesnake)which was crossing the bike trail around a bend so couldn't see it till I curved around the bend. I was going around 25 mph so was going pretty fast when I saw it, rattlesnakes can jump and bite so was lucky to get past it. 

Kastha research chesa appati nundi, recently moved to Folsom area so never knew how much of an issue running into snakes here was. Then got to know that this happens plenty around this time of the year, and this year it's even more due to not many people coming out so more wildlife is out on the trails. Evaranna face chesara ee problem, I am terrified of snakes and would try to avoid them as much as I can.

I had a huge rattle snake in my garage Couple weeks ago ...I picked up and threw it mile away close to mountain and after a week it came back again and resting at the same place in the garage. This time I picked it up again and put it in plastic bucket and dropped it like 15 miles away. Not sure if it will show up again...I used snake repellent this time.
