Copperheads like living under the tarp covering my firewood pile. A few years ago I lifted the tarp and started to grab a log when noticed two full grown copperheads coiled up on my chopping block. (Yep, Copperheaded RattleMoccosins!) I jumped back and almost tripped over my splitting ax - I grinned - this was too easy - I was able to relocate both copperheads with one swing.
Generally, I like snakes and I leave them alone. I would rather have a couple blacksnakes in my garage than the darn mice. Only poisonous snakes get relocated.
