Sea snakes are washing up on New Zealand’s shores

Live Australia (where I think the snakes are probably much more venomous than NE US?). Have young children so any snake I see on my property other than a green tree snake will be executed.

There's a universe of difference between "kill all snakes" and "kill snakes on your property if you have children and live in Australia and aren't sure it's non-venomous".

I was living in bronte in Sydney and heard a ruckus one morning, family next door with 4 young kids screaming. About 20m later the father came out with a shovel and a snake on it that came up through the toilet bowl, was the 4yo that discovered it. I don’t know what kind of snake it was but that would be enough for me to not want to raise kids in Australia lol.
