Along the Everglades to the west of Miami and south, every tropical fish, every bird, every reptile sold in America was beng breed along a corridor there. When Andrew hit, those animals escaped and went directly into the Glades. I did business with most of those guys before the hurricane. One or two snakes released from pet owners are faced with the challenge of getting a boy or girl friend along the way. But release hundreds of snakes both male and female at the same time .....modified dating game .... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just to lay around all day looking fat ; getting grub for nothing.I am not sure whether or not its all myth; but I am told by local farmers around here that part of a cat's "job description" includes snake detection, seek and chase away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To make it worse the thing got scared of her rant and went back down...... and it is still down there in her mind. My cousin has a very exclusive home in the Sacramento valley. When we visited she warned us to inspect the toilet for rats before sitting. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently that had happened to their teen aged son. Hence the warning to house guests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my mom was a child, they had an outhouse. She said a black snake was curled up on a shelf above the "toilet." Her dad came and removed the snake for her. In the same area of PA, we later went on a couple of vacations....Youghiogheny Dam. My dad loved to fish but ignored signs. The sign by the dam said something about keeping out of there. Dad and my cousin started climbing down the many boulders on that side of the dam. Before long they came scurrying back up! They started to hear all of this rattling and realized they were on top of Rattlesnake dens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One morning I was sent to River Oaks, a high end wealthy area, and the lady met me at the door and looking quite traumatized said it's in there pointing to a door. I went into the bathroom expecting a stopped up toilet but found a squirrel looking up at the bottom of toilet... it evidently got down the venting system and into the toilet but got stuck in the turn of the toilet and drowned I got gloves on and pulled it from the toilet and charged her 49.50 and was off... That lady was freaked out... it wasn't but was funny looking at her expression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
