CLOSE CALL with a COPPERHEAD while mowing this OVERGROWN YARD for free!

  • We drove past this yard and noticed it was pretty overgrown so we stopped to talk to the neighbor to see what the story was. He told us that it has been sitting empty for about a year and agreed it could definitely use some attention. We told him we would make it look good again and got to work. We thought it would be just like any other yard until we got to the back and that’s where we ran into trouble when out popped a copperhead snake right next to my mower. These are pretty normal inhabitants of the state I live in but this was a little to close for my comfort, be sure to stick around to see that encounter as well as a surprise I got at the end from yet another snake! The yard came out great even though my nerves were shot. Thank you guys for the support, subscribe if you haven’t, that really helps us continue this work

    Oh my Justin. Just remember, snakes are deaf. They feel the vibrations of the mowers and weed wackers. Bees, snakes, turtles oh my. The Lord was watching over you, the boys and the serpents. May the Lord continue to Bless you and your family. Protecting you and keeping you safe. 🙏🙏🙏 Peace 🕊️🕊️ & Love from Maryland ❤❤. My sister is in your Beautiful State. She is in Raleigh NC.

    I used to help my Dad mow lawns for people at church, the parsonage, and church. We always saw snakes. Mostly bull snakes and garder snakes. Those are not bad snakes. They eat bugs and rodents. Sometimes they get confused by the vibration from more than one mower and don't know which way to get away. Sometimes they're protecting a nest. I would be surprised seeing a copperhead!😮😊 Love seeing your boys helping you out. Some of the best times I spent with my Dad ❤️

    Very nice job. That not only adds to the aesthetics of the neighborhood but the safety. It makes the home look lived in so it won't be a target for criminals or squatters. You are one of the rare few who bothers to trim tree branches and tidy up bushes, etc., rather than just cut and rum mowing. That's great to see the end results of all your hard work. Estates can be a tough situation on a lot of people. That's been a year already and we had one that took three years to settle because of covid, etc.

Stayed terribly bruised and sore for a good month. Second time I've been bitten. First time I spent a week in the hospital. Keep your eyes open
