  • Only when I lived in Venezuela. We had these huge "windows" almost floor to ceiling downstairs. By "windows", I mean holes that had no screens or glass, only wraught iron. So...all kinds of creepy crawlys would be in and out.
  • oye ve. thank god i have not and the day i do, WE MOVE!
  • NO, but I went out my back door to find a copperhead curled up on the porch. I had to go back in and leave through the front door!
  • Nope. Front porch was the closet. He was lounging in the leaves.
  • in my aunt's house.saw it crawling above the main door and getting into the house. i just ran outside the house as soon as i saw it. it seems they are quiet used to seeing snakes as they have a thick blanket of vegetation behind their house.
  • yes i did. killed it and slept out side for 2 days. kinda dumb i know. there's more out side but...
  • Yep, Red Bellied Black Snake We live in the country and in summer if we don't keep the doors closed they come right in and look for somewhere dark to curl up.
  • One night many years ago. I had been given a old stereo that did not work no more but it was made of good walnut wood. Do to that I hauled it home and began taking it a part. Well the house I was in that night was one that was having a overhaul its self. So taking this stereo apart would not do no harm to the floor. So here I set there in the floor with that stereo over my legs, trying to take all the bolts & nut' out of it. When a copperhead dropped into my lap. As it slowly went across my legs & on to the floor. I slowly got up with that stereo & used the frame of the stereo to kill that uninvited snake. I had done away with many others with just a 2x4 on the lumber yards before. But that was the first & last time I'll ever use a full size stereo to get ride of one. I still got good wood out of that stereo, enough to make me a good gun case......O'well warning to all snakes. Stay off my lap....M.C.S.
  • Yes! My wife was sewing when she saw the small snake on the sewing machine. They are a species kind of common in Puerto Rico, non-poisonous....but she got scared like if she had seen the devil!
  • Well, if you consider a tent while your camping your house... Then yes... We were camping in the redwoods in southern oregon and we accidentally left the door open to our tent when we left to go swimming and hiking... Well we got back and I went in there to get some food and something moved under the sleeping bag... I lifted it up and it was a snake... It was tiny though... I just picked it up and played with it until I was bored and then I let it go... I like snakes... The only thing I can't handle are big hairy spiders... They give me the shivers...
  • Not in my house here, but in the cabin we were staying in for the past few weeks we found, over the course of two weeks there, 13 snakes (unless I lost count). We trapped them in a cooler and took them a few miles down the road and let them back out. They were all garter snakes and milk snakes. We also had a bat and a mouse (dead now), and we saw a weasel, a bear, and a HUGE bright yellow-and-black spider.
  • yeah my kitty used to bring them inside all the time, it was so cute
  • Yes when I was a kid the house I lived in was a duplex and the boys next door had a snake,well there snake went missing inbetween the two houses and scared our family half to death, the exterminator had a hard time catching that snake. Don't like snakes!
  • Yes, the 2 that I have as pets.
  • A snake lizard, blue belly lizards, frogs and scorpions. Rattlesnakes under the front steps, but never inside the house that I ever knew about! Those were rough days.
  • Yes, it came into the kitchen and went behind the dishwasher. My mum, my sister and I went out to pick blackberries, when we came back my dad had killed it with a spade !!
  • No but I accidentally ran one over the other day! LOL I know it has nothing to do with my house
  • many times I live in Tennessee and snakes seem to be plentiful.
  • i have had a grass snake in my apt before - the cat lets me know when anything icky is running around -
  • yes. It was not pleasant, but it was funny. I usually find lizards in the house more often than snakes. We catch them and throw them outside. I once found a cute baby one and I put it in a jar and my mom let me take it to school. I left it in my backpack and during recess, I showed my 4th grade teacher and it looked like it was dying so she told me that I probably should let it go...
  • We used to have them outside our house all the time. But never inside. They tried to get in, though. haha We did have scorpions in my house. I was the only one in my family that never got stung. We lived in the middle of nowhere: a little town not far from the DFW area in Texas.
  • Yea, but it was small tho. It was a grass snake in the garden
  • I always find one in my house. My big python when she gets out. I found a little ring-neck snake in my pool the other day. I was floating around talking on my cell phone and I yelled "Oh Shit, a snake." My daughter jumped about 2 feet in the air and I went flying off my raft to catch it. It was BEAUTIFUL. The top was black and the belly was red near the head and changed to a bright orange as it neared the tail. I wanted to keep it, but my hubby said NO MORE SNAKES!!!
  • yeah, my corn snake I use to have.
  • yes, twice. Onetime, I came into the kitchen and there was a copperhead on the floor in front of the stove. and another time there was a black snake in the bathroom. That time was a really rude awakening.
  • yep a taipan I caught it in my kitchen ,i have numerous times caught different species either venomous or pythons around my home and at other peoples places, as a licensed snake catcher i get many ..RBB
  • Yes .. they seem to like my house for some reason.
  • Yes I had a mouse running loose and a Black Rat Snake came in for dinner exoticreptilian,
  • Yeah... I failed miserably at catching it, because it was very adept at throwing itself away from me and the broom, and now it's somewhere in my house... I hope it'll be alright. :(
