It is also reported from Sayyiduna Jarir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Kill every kind of snake. Whoever leaves them alone out of fear of their attack will have nothing to do with me."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir; its chain also contains the narrator Dawud, and he is da'if (weak).
