Why snake inspections are important! – 2-3-2017, FRI
The family from Abilene, Texas, got an unexpected bathroom visitor last week when their son Isac found a rattlesnake in their toilet—only to realize later that it wasn’t the only creature slithering around the house.
Thirteen of the rattlesnakes were tucked away in the cellar and 10 were underneath the house. Including the one that managed to wiggle through a relief pipe into the toilet, that made for 24 snakes in total.
“It’s actually quite simple; rattlesnake are secretive and can be very cryptic,” the company wrote on . “They rely heavily on their camouflage. This is simply how they survive. Just because you don’t see them doesn’t mean they aren’t there.”
If you’re scared of confronting creatures in your place of rest, don’t worry too much about rattlesnakes in particular.
“They’re actually very, very amazing creatures that are really misunderstand,” Big Country Snake Removal owner Hawkins told CBS News. “There are irrational fears around them.”
Still, might be worth it to double-check your toilets tonight before you go to sleep.
