Best Answer

yes

well i guess that depends on the damn brown snake your talking about. there are 4 different varieties. all of them ARE venomous except for the Northern Brown Snake, which i have 4 of. the northern browns located in the northern sect of British Columbia, Michigan, and Wisconsin are definitely NOT venomous. they eat primarily slugs, soft bodied insects, small salamanders, and most of all earthworms (which i feed mine, n boy do they love em)

so yes... MOST brown snakes are, but the northern brown snakes are not. you must be able to distinguish which snake you are referring to and identify it properly, and likewise, people that answer these questions must be able to answer them in more than simple one word answers when a vague question like this is asked. but there you have it. a fair and complete answer.

Our home state of North Carolina does in fact lead the nation in numbers of snakebite, 19 per 100,000 people. Most are bitten by the southern copperhead, Agkistrodon Contortix Contortrix, or the northern copperhead, Agkistrodon Contortrix Mokasen.

There are also a few bites by the timber (canebrake) rattlesnake, Crotulus Horridus, and the eastern cottonmouth (water moccasin) Agkistrodon Piscivorus Piscivorus.

The tiny Carolina pygmy rattlesnake, Sistrurus Miliarius Miliarius, also may account for a few bites, but the large eastern diamondback rattlesnake, Crotulus Adamanteus, is rare here now, and people are rarely bitten by this snake.

The only elapidae member found here, the eastern coral snake, Micrurus Fulvius Fulvius, related to cobras and mambas, is a shy retiring creature that spends most of its time beneath leaf litter and stumps, and is rarely encountered.

The above snakes are all venomous.

Many bites occur from handling of nonvenomous species, such as the black rat snake, or banded water snake.

If you mean the King Brown snake - then yes ! It is a highly-venomous species, found in Australia.

If you don't mind harmless spiders in your house and you have brown recluse spiders I would go find some of these and bring them in. If you cant stand spiders of any kind, call an exterminator.
