Re: You're Kidding Me--Unwanted Company Continued!

A lot of people don't like snake, myself included.  But it is what it is.  Try to find out where they came in and seal it off.  No need to freak out.  Here in FL I occassionaly see snakes.  We even had a few baby ones get in the house, but we got them out quickly.  That being said, I think the movie Anaconda is one of the scariest movies I have seen, an oldie but a goodie.

I thought you had a couple of pet mice? A few years ago?

Lol, I don't even live in 'the woods,' but it's a jungle around my home and hood. I've accepted that I have to share my environment. 

 

I have to always take precautions for snakes. I have lots of Garter snakes (which I like), but also have encountered Coral snakes (yes, the red and yellow kill a fellow ones) and Copperheads. So, I wouldn't be surprised with a Rattler, either. 

 

I left my garage door open recently to visit a neighbor. On return, a good sized Garter greeted me in the middle of my garage. Just glad he wasn't a poisonous one. But, hey, it's TX, one never knows.

@ECBG   I'm guessing you won't be intruding on dh's privacy while he's in his man cave?

 

I'd put him to figuring out how these things are getting into the house.

When everything was hibernating, we had Stumpy and Sadie Lou.  They went into the wooded area one warm spring day.

I would rather have a few non poisenous snakes than rodents.

@DrakesMomma --had to laugh at what your hubbie said---my DD says that about any little spider that she finds, really any bug she finds in her room. I have a thing about spiders--- I can take snakes, rats, mice---but spiders---OMG!!!!!Woman Sad
