Snakes don't bother me as long as I can see them. It's the ones you don't see until too late that unnerves me.
After a few times of falling asleep against a tree in the early moring, before the sun rose, and then waking up and stretching just to find a snake curled up between your legs all nice and snug soaking in the warmth of your body, I started getting sleep and lots of caffeine before going out hunting!
