Nevada has five types of rattle snakes. Those vipers will kill you.

It is fact and not fear.

* We only have two kinds ... but we also have copperheads , coral
snakes , and water moccasins . And they're all safe on our place as long
as they stay in their place - which is out in the woods . If I catch a
poisonous snake in an area that we frequent , I'll kill it . I don't
relocate because I don't want to get bit . Might be different if I had
the tools , but since I don't I ain't getting that close . A hoe with a
5 foot handle is perfect .

Massasauga rattlers are about the only venomous snakes I might
encounter within 100 miles of home - The only dangerous snake native
to Ontario - and a "protected species"

Not like my time in Zambia where Pit Vipers, Maambas, Boomslang,
Cobras, Puff adders, Night Adders, Gabboon Vipers, and Twig Snakes
could all give you a "bad day" - and most were killed on sight by the
locals if in settled areas.
