What are snakes good for? Fighting Lyme disease, for one

What are snakes good for? Fighting Lyme disease, for one

"Most snakes are harmless to humans, but developing a healthy fear of them kept our ancestors from getting squeezed to death or suffering a painful--and occasionally lethal--bite. But we may want to fight this ingrained phobia. (I mean, who needs it anyway since some of us spend the weekend tucked safely in our condos watching Snake Man of Appalachia?) And we should definitely rethink our urge to kill these reptiles--if only because they help keep us safe from another scary biter: the tick. That's right, a recent study finds that snakes help halt the spread of Lyme disease."
