🐍 Is it deadly snake? 2025 was the Year of the Snake...

That scary-looking black garden snake? Totally harmless.
In Florida, most black snakes you see around gardens are Black racer or Black rat snake. They are not poisonous, not deadly, and actually great neighbors.
Black racer - Coluber constrictor
Black rat snake - Pantherophis alleghaniensis
Both are non-venomous, common in Florida gardens, and often mislabeled as "deadly" just because they look bold and move fast.

• ▪️They are actually shy - would rather run than fight
• ▪️Excellent pest control - they eat rats, mice, frogs, and insects
• ▪️Often mistaken for dangerous snakes because they are fast and jet black

I▪️f you see one, it means your garden ecosystem is healthy

So no, this is not a deadly snake - just a free garden helper doing its job. Let it pass, and it will disappear as fast as it showed up!
