While having the bushes along my foundation trimmed, we found a shed snakeskin. I am hoping there is someone in the area who can tell me whether it is from a black snake or from a copperhead. I looked the two up online, and it isn't easy to tell the difference - the sheds look very much the same. I don't want to have a snake treatment that kills black snakes because I know that they are harmless and beneficial. If it is a copperhead, on the other hand, it's gotta go!! (All of its relatives too!!)
Any suggestions on who locally might know something like this? There are places you can mail the skins to for identification, but I would like to know asap.
