IIRC, "Andy" was in flip flops and got smoked. Right off the front porch.
After my father died I was having his yard tended to by a crew. The realtor called me to deliver the bad news that the crew had found several copperheads in what I would call monkey grass that was next to the driveway and sidewalk up to front door. Great, just great.
A few weeks later we were moving stuff out and I told a few folks best to not use front door and be careful near sidewalk. Apparently I'm full of it because I swear one or two of them went straight out the front door and right over the monkey grass. Lucky for them nothing happened.
When the crew did the big yard clean up prior to listing the house, they took all that stuff out. Pretty sure they scarred off the snakes at least for a few hours..
