When I was the first time in a village somewhere in the jungle in Sri Lanka or Northern Thailand I wondered why these people live without any beauty.. There are no flowers at the huts and no green at all . Just a great plain place of swept soil. No chance even for some dry leaves or any dirt. I thought about the difference of European farm or country houses with their flower gardens and the balconies.
In my garden is a little lake and in springtime there are hundreds –may be even thousands of green frogs. Their croaking is really noisy ..but this is not the problem. One of my daughters is paranoid about frogs…When she was 8 or 9 years old she stepped bar feed on such a poor creature in the night time. The frog was killed and since those days she wouldn’t even watch at them. The old fairytale that you should kiss a frog to get a prince, sounds just obscene for her. Now she is 22 and not married yet.
Two years ago I nearly stepped into a 1.50 meter long and fat snake laying on the stones in the entrance door. I am paranoid about snakes… even if I have seen lots of different kinds in jungles all around the world. No, I get always a shock (and the poor snake as well I guess.) It took me a while to realize that the snakes – there are at least 5 of them –live around the lake in our garden. They are absolute harmless. And they live from fishes and frogs! My daughter loves snakes.. She is able to hang them around her neck!
So both of us avoid to come too close to the lake… The problem is that between two trees there is also the clothes line to pick up the washed laundry…. And we don’t even think about killing an animal..
I have offered a neighbours boy to pay him 10 US per snake if he catches them and transport to the lakes in forest some miles away. My daughter complained so the snakes will stay. So there is no solution so far.
But I have learned from the tribes in the jungle. I cut the grass as short as possible and avoid all bushes and vegetation close by the places I have to walk in my garden.
In wintertime there are no snakes and no frogs.. but also it makes no sense to hang the laundry out. Mostly it is raining or there are just a few hours daylight.
