Please nairalanders i need information about this snake. The snake is very common in eti osa area of Lagos.

This is the second one that I have killed this year in my compound . There are undeveloped plot of land around my compound, I suspect that they come from there I need to know the specie, and if they are venomous and poisonous.

Thanks for anticipated assistance

possibly vernomous.

green
black
and brown are vernomous snake colors.

One of our nairalanders is right to know a venomous snake its head must be triangular and to detect non-venomous one its head must be circular(round) which means not all snakes are poisonous e.g python

Garter snakes are harmless

@op
Why ask if it is POISONOUS?

Do u eat snakes?

Nna all Lagos snakes are dangerous o

Guy, just buy many bitter cola and trow it around you compound. It chase away snakes.

. please contact the person that has the land to clear the weed.Snakes usually come out for sunshades after rainfall.

Garter or Ribbon snake - Garter snakes were long thought to be nonvenomous, but discoveries in the early 2000s revealed they do, in fact, produce a neurotoxic venom.[6] Despite this, garter snakes cannot kill humans with the small amounts of comparatively mild venom they produce, and they also lack an effective means of delivering it

THIS IS ACTUALLY A POISONOUS SNAKE. CHECK IT'S BROAD HEAD

arantess:

These are friendly garter snakes and different from cobra

The rate at which we kill them these days, their population will soon be threatened. Lets learn to live peacefully with these beautiful snakes. They don't bite to attack and to defend.
If you keep your cool, a human - garter snake cohabitation is very possible.



Even the cobra self they only bite to defend
Because i dey reason am why he be say if snake come meet us for house them nor dey harm us. Sometimes self you fit live with snake for two years inside house them nor go do you anything

There is no way you can be bitten by a snake in a residential building
Which means they respect us

Ikem11:
Brother I understand what u saying totally... Read what I wrote again then u will understand. All snakes got venoms but some venoms are very weak that even bucket of it in your system won't do u any harm.

U see that snake u said got no venoms allow It to bite you and u will notice sweat on you but it ends there to show u the venom isn't active

Oga abeg all snakes are poisonious or venomous to me. For eg echie te ka (tomorrow is too far) a snake in Nsukka, very short, black and jumps when step up on is very dangerous snake. Abeg op beware of all snakes abeg.

The 5years i spent in Nsukka i don't usually go out at night because it seen during rainy season. If i must go out, i must have my touch light to aviod stories that touch

I have 2 native method to avoid dangerous reptile like a snake
1 : always look for an animal bone nd wood burn it together adjacent to the suspected area of the reptiles
2 : look for for about 10 to 15 onions and divide each one with a knife nd spread it at the suspected position of the reptiles.

morzook:
Check the teeth. Venomous snakes have fangs to inject their venoms

u go open hin mouth to check weda hin brush teeth abiiii? do that to king cobra nd u will have enough time to check in grave....

Skyfornia:

I'm maniacally bewildered by your stupidity.

I lost an aunty due to snake bite. Every snake is a threat to all humans.
