How I Lived With A Snake In My House For Months by tonye33(op): 11:27am On Feb 01
By: @GodsgreatG/twitter

I remember a time when I was unknowingly living alongside a snake for over two months. I would spot it occasionally, try to kill it, and it would always manage to escape. That went on until one evening when it came out in search of food and finally ran out of luck.

If you live close to farms or busy, overgrown areas, it’s important to keep your surroundings clean and fumigated. It can make a real difference.

This is so sad.

Living like inside your house...?shocked shocked

I would pack from the house and leave my property there and never come back.


I had a poultry farm house some time back. I used sleep there occasionally if it was too late for me to get back to town.


The last time I ever slept in that place was the night I heard something moving in the ceiling I suspect was a snake.

Throughout that night I didn't close my eyes for 1 minute to sleep. I shone my eyes counting the hours till day break.


I can't imagine inside the same house. You want me to run mad be that!

Well, you don’t need to live in a bush or close to farm to have snakes in your house. As long as there are uncompleted buildings with bush around you, snakes can come visiting uninvited. Practice fumigation, just like someone up there adviced.

Snakes many times do not just attack when unprovoked, like it can actually live peacefully with you if it doesn’t feel threatened. Some persons keep snakes as pet.

I once saw a snake sleeping peacefully close to my bed, it was sound in sleep that it did not realize that I moved my bed to reveal it’s hiding place. I killed it tho.

I only started hating to see them around when there was a news of a snake hiding in the water closet, thereby killing someone. Since then, I like to check my water closet or even flush before use.

I’ve had similar experience too..

The snake stayed for like 4 months before eventually shedding it skin then leave.

Life is mysterious. Whatever happens to that lady is beyond snake bite..
