This morning before work I was out in the garage messing around and look what I found. I am still hobbling around a little bit from dropping the swag tool on my right foot almost a month ago. I had hairline fractures on my big toe and the one next to it and a lot of bruising. It is still rather sore and still bruised pretty good, the swelling is down. I hit it this morning getting away from the snake! I never expected to see it in the garage and certainly not this big of one. My neighbor has had them in her garage before. We have seen a lot of snakes this year in our yard, more the years prior. My husband was out looking around the yard after he killed this one and found one up under the storage building in the backyard. I just checked and he is still out there, we'll get him when hubby gets home. The chicken wire worked to keep the big ones from getting under there but I could see where something had been getting under the chicken wire the other day. My husband just killed one last week Monday or Tuesday and I've lost count of how many he has killed this year.
this one was in the garage
this is the one still under the storage building
Did you all see on the news about the lady in Arizona that found a black and pink coachwhip snake in her toilet. That has always been one of my biggest fears, when I was a kid one of my grandparents neighbors had a cottonmouth in their toilet. They a septic system and it somehow got in there.
So of course it reignited my fear about finding a snake in the toilet, so far I have been lucky! The other night I found this in the toilet, I retrieved him and put him back outside.

'Worst nightmare': Arizona woman finds 3-foot-long snake in her toilet
The homeowner said her father tried to wrangle the snake that same night but it slithered away. So, she called a company called Rattlesnake Solutions the next morning.
