232 QUIPPERY / SEEDS & WEEDS

If your garden is in the Amazon rainforest, you can of course expect

to see the occasional green anaconda slithering its 17-foot, 150-pound

body among your zucchini, on the hunt for a dog, cat, or child. Do not

think you can make it go away by punching it in the nose (that’s for

sharks), making a ruckus (bears), or staring it in the eyes (uncomfortable

first dates).

Smart gardening tips for SNAKE safety

• Avoid working in your garden when snakes are not hibernating.

COMPOST PILES

Standard around many gardens, these can pose grave danger. Heaven

forbid you should fall into a compost pile — and it can happen.

Smart gardening tips for COMPOST SAFETY

• Do not allow children to play unsupervised around the compost pile.

• Do not tend the compost pile while under the influence of alcohol,

drugs, or anything that impairs mental clarity.

• Be sure to have life rings nearby. Airboats work well for larger compost

pile rescues.
