All in the name of progress.
Ours, not theirs.
Sorry to hear the news.

Personally I'd take this time to try to catch what I could to save them from construction, relocating where needed, most construction workers are going to kill the snakes if they find them =/

Mine got destroyed a couple years back, now I have to drive outside the city for some decent herping.

Sorry to hear the news, Josh. Most of my good spots have all been leased by hunting clubs and are now posted with no trespass signs.

Definitely. That's pretty much why I started my own rescue effort around the neighborhood here: because I knew residents and gardeners would just kill them if they got the chance.

Another suggestion: talk to the construction people and see if they'd let you herp while they're building. In my experience so far, people are perfectly willing to let you hunt for snakes if they know you plan to remove them.
