Yes Cheri, you are absolutely right, but the bad thing about it is I can't remember the riddle about red to black and red to yellow, which one is the coral and which one is the king. I had a real big problem with them one year I was seeing all kinds of snakes and they were under my house. Everytime I went outside it seemed like I either saw one go under or come out from under the house. I am scared of them. They may not hurt me, but they will make me hurt myself! I had mice the winter before and they were after them. They rid me of the mouse in the house problem. I put out sulfur all around the perimeter and it got rid of them. Well, needless to say, the mice came back. I am always finding baby snakes and grown ones. One day as I was coming out my back door I saw the granddaddy of them all (chicken snake) coming out from the opening where the air conditioner sits. He was a whopper. I ran for the shovel and he was gone when I got back. I don't care what the snake experts and snake lovers say, I will kill every snake I see if I get the chance. Especially the poisousnous ones.
