Default Anyone know snakes?

Yup- they were all over the brick walls of the basement. The teeth aren't
long enough to be more than sandpaper. They were nice little visitors.

Along the same line of picking things up. . . Like everyone in NC, our

property had many blue tailed skinks.

I think the lizard you're referring to is what's known as the
"Five-lined skink" (Eumeces fasciatus). There's a photo of one at
http://coolsprings.org/skink.jpg; does that look like what you remember?
It's also been my experience that the little things can bite surprisingly
hard when they feel the need to.
