Title: Springtime in Texas
Post by: Saber 4 on May 12, 2014, 08:17:55 PM
Had to kill this little beauty inside the front door of the part of the house we are going to remodel on Saturday morning

I thought about it but it was to much trouble with only one little one. They're actually pretty good as kabobs with a little teriyaki sauce.

No, I moved him out from behind the door to get a picture, but that carpet square has a 12ga sized hole in it. I'm still not sure how I would have handled it if he was in the finished and lived in part of the house, But you can bet I'm going to figure something out in case it does happen again.

Saber, you think that one was bad? Check out this one (http://www.theeagle.com/news/local/woman-gets-slithery-surprise-when-she-finds-a--foot/article_5616c20a-4efd-53bf-b78e-87c88473ad8e.html) from College Station, Texas.

Granted, that is someone's pet. But it wouldn't be if I found it in my bathroom. Been there, done that and ended up
killing the thing. It wasn't a python or Moccasin, but it was a freaking snake and in my house!  ???

That would be a nightmare waiting to happen, I'd probably shoot up the whole house to get that bad boy dead!
