Should we ban guns because they can kill too? Get rid of all of the guns and no one will get killed? Snakes are not going to kill your children. Teach your children what snakes are, teach them to respect snakes and not to mess with them. See a snake, calmly leave the area, tell dad or mom.
I am sure your method works too. I feel the same way about ground squirrels. All ground squirrels are conspiring to overthrow man's God given right to rule this planet. As a result, I engage in frequent firefights with these vicious murdering vermin. Maybe that is why I am partial to snakes, they are my allies in this war to save the planet from eventual ground squirrel totalitarianism.
That is just my two cents. I would rather save my time for coyotes and squirrels than waste it on snakes.
