It looks and sounds like this is a case of a dirty house attracting the rodents (and probably cockroaches?), and the rodents attracting the snakes. Nothing makes a home in a barren wasteland where there is no hope of finding food.
The person who lived in before claimed it had snakes, an ongoing problem it seems. Somehow the place got infected and it’s just hard to get them all out.
“The mother said it all began with a mice problem after she signed a two-year lease last June.
She added to the news outlet: ‘The mice were really bad, jumping in and out of the trash cans. Eating on my bread. Everything.’
The snakes are there to eradicate pestilence, as God intended.
Maybe she’d prefer Lepto, plague or Hantavirus.
Maybe, but my neighbor is a cleaning fanatic and three winters ago found an infestation of canebrake rattlers in her crawl space hibernating.
They can find small openings in the floorboards and water pipe holes and get into the house too.
