HI @TeaForLife
Yes, That's very understandable, fortunate that we don't have to encounter too many!

I am sorry you had to be afflicted in this way, otherwise you would have made some nice snake friends...
As a child I was inoculated with the misconception that snkes are bad, I traveled on the Scandinavian archipelago and saw a nest of young snakes in the rocks so my instinct was to stomp them to death with my boots...
My friends and colleagues stopped me saying: "cosmin, what are you doing, you are killing baby snakes" and I stopped my foot in realistion they were roght and I felt ashamed that I did not understand...
Later in life, I visited one of our natural reserves and wittnessed a father and mother urging a child to kill a snake nested at the bottom of the tre "hit it with rocks, hit it with sticks, kill it, kill it" I was baffeled this was happening in a national natural reserve park...I was ashamed for human nature...
I have many phobias myself so I underdtand alot, I just wished you would not be afraidof them...
I am sorry foryour phobia.
