Alright, I'm going to launch explosives around your house. For several hours. Yes it is dangerous and terrible for wildlife and the environment. And yes your pets will get sick from eating the debris and you will feel terrorized inside your own home.
No you can't opt out of it. Everyone is doing it and frankly it's weird that you don't want to.
No you can't be the one launching the explosives you need a license for that. You can however launch these marginally smaller ones though. Yeah just whenever you want. 2am sounds great.
So anyway, fireworks were a mistake and it's never too early to start reminding you of that.
Snakes? Wouldn't the rockets and fire crackers stress them out? Ive never heard involving snakes in a celebration, except maybe in some religious ceremonies from some niche christian groups, but even there I think they use venomous ones.
(Not sure if sarcasm or ernest) Blacksnakes are a small pellet that grows into a long tube when set of fire.
Oh, I think ive heard of like chemistry demonstrations that do a trick like that but ive never heard of it as like a fireworks thing. I've seen enough people refer to black ratsnakes as just "black snake" that that was where my brain immediately jumped for some reason, like someone taking their pet snakes out to a homemade fireworks show for some reason, which would seem inadvisable.
