Honestly,I experience the same too but it's usually a fast movement so I want to believe its either a rat or a lizard

My God! Why did i open this thread? I cant sleep.... Jus flashing light at every corner in my house.

iamharkinwaley:



Good Pm Op, Any development yet ?


So I doubt if it's a snake that keeps making noise in your ceiling. My reasons, If I read correctly you said it shed its skin.

You probably don't know this before but I'll tell you, Snakes when they shed there skins moves far away as fast as possible from that spot. They can't come back anymore, that's fact and you can confirm from elderly ones, they'll tell you more, Unless another snake came in to start causing tantrums up in your ceiling but the one that shed its skin is gone... I'll advice to confirm your claims, know what is up there, if you can't call on someone or people that will.


Peace

You are right sir.. Ejo ki pada si ibi iboho re ( snake don't go back to where they shed skin)

Where dis snake guy? How far? What's the update?

Richy4:
This kind of gist is sending shivers down my spine.. U were practically living with a dangerous creature ... who was not paying rent... and for two years or more for that matter.. haba!

I'm guessing you gonna teach me on how one can get his eyes closed at night knowing fully well that a dangerous snake is living with him.. Some people are way too 'tough' for my liking..

Walahi, heeennn, who put fire on the roof and sleep? I wish I don't read this post, cos if I dear here any movement there on the roof I'll think it's snake.

Not all posts are worth reading!

Haaa, snake for two plenty years, haaa. I weak!

NwaOhafia:


You just took those words out of my mouth. He should call Hausa snake charmers. They don't collect money, you give them what you feel it's okey because it's not a business but inheritance

That was when Nigeria was good, u must have aged. Now naa real business ooo

Pack out bro, the snake is now anaconda

GarbaAudu:

If you have seen the long skin shade, then it's most likely a black cobra. It has a strong survival skill and can adapt to any unhealthy environment, holes, dark spaces etc. If you are sure you don't have rats/rodents in the house then the serpent is feeding on wall geckoes. That explains why it survived this long. If you are really convinced that you have a snake up there, then your best option is to call the service of Hausa snake charmers. Any other options will be dangerous as the snake will be threatened by the invasion of its territory. It can fight to death. If you are in the north, snake charmers are everywhere. If you are in Lagos, you can get them in IdiAraba, Obalende, Mile12, or even Agege. For a fee of N10, 000 they can safely remove any poisonous reptile from your house.

The best advice since morning

Snake series

You left snake there for 2yrs,so expect her grand children too


You are fighting snakes

Hello everyone,

There is snake living in my roof. It has been over 2 years now the reptile has been living in there. I first noticed it sometimes in 2017 when i saw snake skin in my roof. I have blocked all entry holes for lizard and the likes thinking the snake would die or leave due to starvation ....but it didnt leave and the snake seems to be thriving in there. I dont know what its eating.

I taught of fumigation but i think the snake can escape the fumigation odor because it can easily hide in the deep block holes.

I cant go in there, as am writing this i can hear the snake moving all about in my attic.

What can i do to get rid of it?

MODS: If its not too much i want this in front page for better audience or opinions.

following closely, please update us on the success with pictures too

...

IamSoProlific:
Hmmm, I do hear sound in my own ceiling too but once in awhile, but I feel it could be wall gecko. Whatever it is, it will die by fire and can never do me harm. I Jesus Mighty Name Amen!!!

Lol

This is illegal snake rearing my friend. Depriving the snake of her means of feeding will result to it feasting on you now that she's big enough to give you a try. Snake can live 8 months without feeding but eat heavy meal.

My God! Why did i open this thread? I cant sleep.... Jus flashing light at every corner in my house.

Lmao even me

czarina:
throw boiled eggs inside the ceiling for what? To bribe it?

Auladimeji:
I'm waiting for an update, stingy man
Call Hausa snake charmer?No na olode wey no get experience you go call because you no won spend 10k
I pray make the snake enter your trouser.Nonsense

Guy don take am personal o

Omihanifa:
If what you are saying is the truth then the snake is not ordinary it's more of a spiritual issue than fumigation

God help us, when will this madness end..

Where is OP?

Please avoid carbide. It is more dangerous than the snake you want to chase out.

Ijawwomaninoyo:


A snake's best food is egg. Why? When it swallows an egg, it will climb a height and throw itself down so the egg can break and digest.

wow. I learn everyday from this forum.

xavuv:
The Snake is only up there while we r down here, we don't ever see.long time ago,i Went to fix light bulb in the ceiling that's when i noticed snake skin.

The only place it could come out from is the man hole in the ceiling the man hole is well covered too. Ceiling is POP made, so the snake is well sealed up . i left it for 2 years thinking it would die of hunger. Surprisingly, it did not. Like GarbaAudu mention the thing been feeding on wall geckos( omo online).

.

Stop lying you are doing well.

Viking007:
Yes. A kid in my church died recently due to snake bites. He went to poo not knowing a snake was hiding inside the toilet.

Centrallock:
can snake live inside the toilet water system mine is always open but always neat

Sometimes pour fuel, kero or sniper inside and flush, just to avoid some things.

kings59:



That black cobra climbed the fense, from the fence, it stretched and rolled over the rope we use to spread cloth, from the rope it entered the hole on the net.
.

I tried to picture this scenario in my mind.
I think the snake was on a quest.

kings59:



Follow what this person has said ooo. Since the snake is at the top of the roof, more likely in a hole, I can tell you that that snake is a black cobra( Naga specie).

That type of cobra is very agressive, they ain't affected by fumigation, onions, bitter kola, carbide or planting lemon grass.


My cousin left the room window open, and there was a hole on the net. That black cobra climbed the fense, from the fence, it stretched and rolled over the rope we use to spread cloth, from the rope it entered the hole on the net.

I wanted to go out and get something( I was the only one at home that night) , but before going, something told me to flash torch light at the curtain ,as I flashed light at the curtain, loo and behold I saw a long fat black cobra rolling itself on the black rod. I blinded its eyes with the rechargeable lamp I bought.


I can't fight or slaughter the snake alone, so I decided to keep the snake company by continuously talking and gingering myself. After 30 mins, my sis and mom came back home. They came in and saw me flashing light in the room. I told them to come and see. Immediately they both saw it, the shouted and began to shiver.



I then told my sis that our cousin left the window open and left for work. So I told her to go and call like 4 guys. She came back with them.

As I showed them the snake, to my greatest surprise, the 4 guys began to fight one another saying, " na me get the snake oo, na me go chop am" others were also saying same."


After I settled on how the snake would be shared, we all went in and the killing began.

I hit the head, it fell and began to roll in an unspecified direction, it was very fast, the other guy got the middle part by slicing it with a cutlass. The snake hurriedly crawled under the wardrobe. One of the guys quickly got the head as we shifted the wardrobe.

The snake died instantly and it's head was decapitated immediately.

I know the risk we took in killing that snake.


So Op please just call a snake charmer because that one on your roof might be able to spit. Its spit is very harmful to the eyes if not washed properly.



Also note that mating season is coming, June, July, august, be expecting like 4 to 5 of them.

Act quickly before june.



OR

You can buy a pussy cat, they are threat to snakes.

It's just like a kidnapper living next to you.

The cat is the ''kidnapper'' while the snake is the ''you"

It's very dangerous to live close to a kidnapper because one day dem fit kidnap or kill the person. So it is with cat and snake.


There is only two animals that can kill a snake but you can't find them in Nigeria or import them.

They are;


1. Mongoose

2. Honey badger( even lions are afraid of honey badger)

When snake bits these animals, the venom travels straight to its heart, the venom gets neutralized and becomes harmless, it bounces back through their veins.

Mongoose full Etinan, in Akwa Ibom State na.

Op doesn't value his life and cannot be a responsible person in real life.

ignorance is ur problem ... There are different species of alligators

This is a Monitor Lizard... Not an alligator

Grind plenty of bitter kola and throw it inside the roof. It will try to fimd a way out. Position by possible exit points amd kill it or let it go. Whichever you desire
