Op nice work but you are not totally right.

Snake inside toilet System is as a result of broken chamber, pipes or not well covered soak away. If you have a soak away with a good air inlet, no snake can gain access into it not to talk of locating the pipe that leads to your house.

Also some people are fond of not covering their slabs as it was formerly after repair work. This can lead to snakes or other things turning the slab to their home and sometimes paying you a visit inside the house. So after the plumber had done his repairs, make sure he cement the slabs well enough so you won't tell stories that touch the heart.

Also, when running your waste pipe, try and get a thick pipe because rats can easily make hole on a light pipe thereby creating avenue for other creatures to make use of it.

As per the floor drainage filter.that you suggested to be covered with a piece of tiles, if you have done all the aforementioned, I don't think their is need for that. Just avoid removing the filter cover on the drainage system. Many people remove it because they want the waste/bath water to move out faster. It is very dangerous, he that invented it did so for a reason. Remember to always cover your washing hand basins and sink with the rubber cover that comes with the drainage system.

My opinion though.

I am a plumber (Been off plumbing for a while now) and your analogy is 100% correct.

How you corrected him so politely is really commendable!!!


He did his best. No one in his right sense would talk rude to someone who took his time to educate people on something very important. If he had not brought up the idea, I wouldn't have aired my own opinion.

So he still deserves the credit.

Wonderful you just added more clarity to the post. No matter how much the snake chases the rat inside the ground, if there is no open access through walls linking to the septic tank, it can possibly get in not to mention trailing the path of air!

Sure that chamber.
I had an experience when I had typhoid/ malaria.
I went to a Nurse house for my daily injection
On getting there I was press and the nurse directed me to the BQ I entered the rest room. As I am about to pee I saw short python. The pee go and I zoom off and tell the nurse what I saw. She said i may be hallucinating. So I insisted they pour kerosene into the wc.As soon as they pour the kerosene I ran out to where the chamber was
Kabooms the short python just struggle and came out from the chamber.

I did not go back there to complete my injections.


Point of entery

Chamber

Note those living in or near busy area
Always fumigate
If you have money

Then pour small kerosene into the wc weekly.

Shalom

cool

Very good write up, really help, that's why most of the time when I'm travelling for few days, what I do is to pour alot of salt in the water closet and cover it.

Even sometimes, when visitors toilet is not used for some weeks that's what I do.

You can do business with us, contact us for your face mask.

Please what does the salt do?
Re: This Is How Snakes Get Into Your Toilet Sink And Bathroom by Advancedman(m): 6:00pm On Apr 24, 2020
As you know snakes feed mostly on rats and rats are known to burrow or dig holes in the ground. So as Mr.Snake chases after Mr.Rat, Mr.Rat runs into it's hole thinking it is safe but Mr.Snake still continues it's chase after Mr.Rat into Mr.Rat's hole and Mr.Snake might catch Mr.Rat if it's lucky.

If Mr.Snake gets unlucky and Mr.Rat Escapes Mr.Snake would have lost it's way and then tries to find every possible way to get out of the hole and the only way it can do this is to follow the direction air is coming from and unfortunately again, that air is coming from your toilet pipe that is connected to your septic tank under the ground.

The snakes then follows this path and ends up in your toilet.


Is the snake going to dig the sand up to the toilet sink or is it going to make hole in the pipe?

Correct!
Similar incident happened to us. I was the first to see it although it was already outside the pit but wrapped around the toilet bowl, my mom actually used it without knowing and immediatly I step in I saw it. We later discovered it go in through an exposed chammber. God saved my mum dat day.

It is just like putting salt on earth warm, so it would scare them away off that place.

And another most effective one is pouring kerosene or petrol inside.

You are right when the suckaway/ septic thanks done in a proper way by professionals but NOT all were constructed with reinforced concrete. Many are still constructed with block,
Mostly water lodge area were constructed with reinforced concrete.
True talk, the Op makes it look like snake can enter all toilet which is not true.
I don't think the article was written by someone in the building and construction industry.

Re: This Is How Snakes Get Into Your Toilet Sink And Bathroom by Chronicle222: 11:51pm On Apr 24, 2020
The best alternative thing to do is to try to fumigate ur septic tank and soak away at least once in 2 or 3 months. U can use a simple method of getting SNIPER or d likes. Open it and pour around 2/3 of into ur Wc and the remaining portion into the floor drain. Flush it after around 5 minutes. U will definitely c d results within maximum of 30 minutes. U gonna thank me later
