By the way, if your really worried about a snake in your house get a cat. Most cats will kill any vermin in your house.
Actually, two of my cats were killed by a snake. We finally found and caught the sucker. It now resides at Khao Kheo Open Zoo in Chon Buri, Thailand. It was about 10 ft. long. I've got pictures somewhere, I'll see if I can find them.
There was another snake about 6ft. long that the rest of my cats ripped to bits about a month after that. (I used to have 8 cats: the mother, father, and their kittens.)
I think that's a good Idea, I should get a cat, though I always keep askin my pa for a doggy, cause doggie's love you but cat's seem cold.
You know what the difference between dogs and cats is?
Dog's view:
Wow, these people feed me, love me, care for me, give me a home. They must be gods!
Cat's view:
Wow, these people feed me, love me, care for me, give me a home. I must be a god!
