I can understand your apprehension, but don't let it get the best of you. Being afraid of your snake biting you wont get either of you very far.
I have been bit one time, and it wasn't even my snake! It was a baby ball at Petsmart. I am told that BP bites hurt more, but as I have said I have never gotten it from one of my corns. The only thing I could compare it to is being hit with those diabetes tester things. It was literally 4 little tiny pin pricks of blood that I didn't know were there until the guy from the store asked if I wanted a paper towel. Ever since then, I don't worry about it in the slightest. If one of my corns gets me it gets me. Wont be the end of the world.
I guess I just accept it as a part of the hobby.
Besides, how can you (or your son) join the bite club if you don't get....bit?
