Thanks Horizon, I have noticed the lack of snakes in my yard. For years I have had to go out and rake my grass before cutting it, as it would have snakes and green frogs snoozing in the sun.

The last couple of years there have been no snakes or green frogs, but plenty of toads! It also looks like a bumper year for rabbits, I guess with the snakes gone, they have taken over once again, here in my backyard.
