[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 493564, member: 4485"] In long grass I'd be wearing gaiters regardless of the likelihood of snakes. Gaiters will also keep burrs out, water from wet grass etc. so even in winter can be good to wear in tall grasses. In summer they also keep the burrs etc. out + offer some extra protection if you are unlucky enough to tread on a snake - very few people actually get bitten like this. More people get bitten trying to kill or catch the snake. Good ankle height boots & long trousers are a must in these areas IMO. To find the property owner or managers you will need to do some research which might differ depending on state. Basically you will need to find the address as a minimum but the lot no. & DP number can be needed. Most states have websites where titles information can be found & even basic ownership details. Local Council might sometimes be able to help track down owners or managers of land too. In some cases you'll have to contact the Lands Dept. of your state. [/QUOTE]
