![ring necked snake 1 | Walter Reeves: The Georgia Gardener](https://t9e4s3i5.rocketcdn.me/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/ring-necked-snake-1.jpg)
Q: This little fellow showed up on my patio today. Can you identify what kind of a snake this is?
A: It’s a lovely little ringnecked snake. It is completely harmless. It could even be considered a garden helper since it eats slugs and crickets. It is most active at night so you might not see it again.
