10. Dealing with Copperheads

Following a few tips can help reduce the chance of being bit by a copperhead snake. Wear long pants and boots when working, avoid climbing wood and leaf piles because copperheads can camouflage, and reduce the snakes' access to residential yards by clearing tall grass. Even with all of these precautions, bites still happen. If you get bit by a copperhead, clean the area with soap and water first. Keep the bitten area at heart level and call poison control.
