Loc: the wabe

two per YEAR? We get dozens. Mostly they are in the basement. (we don't kill them ... we "relocate" them a couple miles away to the other side of the river, so sometimes I wonder if they are the same !@#$ing snakes.) We are doing remodeling and have found old snakeskins in the walls and attic, which is pretty creepy. I am pretty used to it by now. We just don't know how to keep them from coming inside. We have an old crumbly limestone foundation and a crawl space under the kitchen and both of these, I think, contribute to the problem.

We had a snake dangling from a crevice in the basement for ages a couple years ago. We tried pulling on it but it wouldn't come out. Eventually it died. I was really sure that we would pull hard on it to get it out and it would come apart or something hideous like that, but it came out in one piece. I felt sorry for the poor guy.
