It is common for snakes to leave snakes during the rainy season. As soon as rain drops fall on the earth. Many creatures hidden under the ground come out. Among them, the most discussed and fear is about snakes. People get nervous due to the presence of snakes in the fields, barn, enclosure, streets and sometimes houses. Often this fear is not fatal, but inadvertently a step taken can be harmful for the animal as well as humans.

Many people believe that every snake is poisonous and if it bite, death is certain, but this is completely wrong. About 80% of snakes found in India are non-throat. They do not harm humans, but play a very important role for the environment.

Many of these snakes eat rats, insects and other organisms that harm crops, which saves the yield of the farmer. Killing snakes not only causes damage to biodiversity, but inadvertently we can also get into trouble ourselves – especially when the snake is poisonous and we do not get recognition.
