In North America at least, most venomous snakes have a triangular shaped head.

I think I've answered this before but - treat all unknown animals as dangerous, get your local pest controller in to get rid of them. (in the UK we have only one native venomous snake (The Adder - identified by it's zig zag stipes but whose to say the snake hasn't escaped from a zoo!)

I had a problem several years ago. I called a forestry agent to ask if snakes could be poisoned. He told me that the only way to get rid of a snake was to physically kill it. He also told me that if a snake has a rounded head and round eyes, it is not venemous. If a snake has a diamond shaped head and slit eyes, like a cat, it IS venemous. I also found out from my mother that burning sulphur will make them leave an area they inhabit. It was close to July, so I bought several 'smoke bombs' and set them off. After that I had no more snakes. I just didn't want to get close enought to see their eyes, or to kill them. I only have one more suggestion. Do NOT set them off in the basement. I set mine off all around the house, AND in the basement. My house smelt like sulphur for about three months.
