The press service of the Forestry Committee of the Moscow region announced the beginning of the autumn migration of vipers. During this period, reptiles crawl from the fields into the woods and begin to look for places to winter.

With the onset of cold weather, snakes gather in shelters, weave into tangles and fall into hibernation. At the same time, there can be from several tens to hundreds of reptiles in one burrow.

Experts urge caution when walking in the forest or picking mushrooms. To protect yourself from viper bites, you should wear tight and high shoes. Snakes are very sensitive to vibrations, so they can be scared off by creating noise.: by stomping, shuffling or rustling with a stick.

You can protect your suburban areas from the migration routes of snakes if you mow the weeds and regularly cut the growing grass.
