most of the rattlers ive killed over the years have been choked to death with heel dust!LOL I worked a hundred years ago down at the okc stockyards.the old builings at that time were brick about 2-2 1/2 ft thick so they stayed fairly cool in summer.you had to watch all the time when you were moving stuff or working in them.some of them were loaded with pygmy rattlers.they would rattle at you but they were so small ,maybe 18- 20" for a big one ,that you couldnt hear them if there was any noise going on.several guys were bitten by them and didnt even know it until a hand or something would start swelling up.one guy got bitten on the web of his hand between thumb and first finger,and he must have been really suscepable or something because he came very close to them cutting his arm off to save his life.I was more scared of those than any diamondback or timber rattler i ever run up on. I saw one on the road last year and it was the only one i ever saw away from the stockyards.
