Maybe.. Hard to say but the map seemed to show a straight horizontal
line near the top of Florida which seemed odd.. Visa expired? B)

This year my sister, whos cottage is not used from late October
until May, built one of those Pail traps, ...

I emailed you a pic of one that was built and used here. It

Yes, it will be interesting to see if we have any luck with them.
(She bought 2 - for 2 buildings) The ramp setup might help or
hurt that. As I mentioned ealier, I took a tiny bit of peanut butter
and touched it along up the ramp hoping the mice would smell that
more easily and follow it up looking for more.

The ramp on hers looked pretty steep to me but I guess it's been
tested by the maker, plus I've seen mice walk vertically up a wooden
wall so they are pretty good at getting places..

Maybe their state does not report stats on vipers or, at least,
copperheads. <shrugs>

If you just ask the question, it says online that there are copperhheads
in Florida in very limited areas, maybe a few more places than the
huge map of the USA showing their range I saw showed the other day.

They said they are far less common than the other 5 venomous snake types
in Florida.
