Not at my house. Headline would have read:

Rattlesnakes den in the winter.... The house should list a bonus "den" on MLS
We were hiking in 1999 near yosemite... I saw an abandoned mine.... My friend mentioned that Rattlesnakes will Den up... That and a little bit of common sense kept me from exploring the old gold mine

Are the snakes considered his property? If so, make boots and chili. Then sit on the back porch wearing the boots and eating the chili as a warning to the others.
Mongoose is hell on cobras, in a cage match with any rattler, don't bet on the mongoose.
I shoulda left the cage out of it. Mongoose loses against a rattler...anywhere any time. Rattler is faster than a blink of your eye.
Just think heat seeking missile...that's a rattler.
Then again I'm not sure....
There is lots of speculatiin, and a Mamba is supposed to "move" faster than any snake alive.
I know this. I remember watching an old Bill Jordan hunt in South Texas. One of the guys shot a big diamondback with a bow, that was coiled and ready. When the arrow left the bow, that rattler had moved toward the arrow with it's strike at least a foot.
You had to frame by frame it, but the snake actually "caught" the broadhead. Damndest thing I ever saw, and the only reason I believe it....I saw it frame by frame.
Honestly, that may mean nothing when it comes to mongeese? Mongooses? ER....a gaggle of mongoose....es.

Cobra strike speed compared to a rattler is like a Corolla racing a Z06.
Supposedly, the Death Adder is the fastest striker. Death Adder
Gaboon has largest fangs. I don't think he is specially fast though, his trick is camoflage....none his equal.
Don't know where they rank, but the speed is listed as 175-200 MPH. Rattlesnakes strike up to 28 G's. Pilots are out by 15, IIRC. Wish I could find comparable stats.
When I was eight my parents gave me a book about snakes. I read it until it fell apart. To this day, I am fascinated by them, but prefer to see them at a distance.
Rattlers aren’t just fast they get big too. Here in NC while hunting I saw one in a rock pile with a head the size of a VW bug. Never saw the whole snake but it had to have been 10 feet long!
