I've seen them in South Texas, always happy to see them around too.

one would think they'd want a few rattle snakes around for rodent control. These Indigos take out the rattler population and then what?

Buy some cats or some rat traps? WGAF, I would rather have a surplus of mice than rattle snakes.

You don't want rattlers. King snakes get the rats, owls and hawks do too. There are tons of snakes that aren't rattlers. My grandparents have had a huge uptick in rattle snakes (Hutto-Roundrock area) on their farm lately.
