So late last night, we were getting ready for bed. I was in the living room shutting things down when I heard my wife let out a loud "Holy Fck!". I walk over to see my wife at the foot of the bed staring into the master bathroom. First thought, dog must have puked his guts out. Nope, it was a 2+' juvenile Prairie King snake (based upon my amatuer TexAgs Snake Thread knowledge). I wanted to take a picture, but my wife seemed too unnerved for me to leave to search for my phone. I tossed a towel over the little guy and set him free outside. My wife had a hard time sleeping last night after the whole ordeal was over.

We have a nest of snakes living under the foundation below the master bedroom. It's common to see EYBR's running around, in & out of their snake holes. We've had small ribbon snakes make their way under the couch in the den, but nothing 2+ feet long. I guess I'll re-apply snake-away granuals around the house tomorrow. Not sure how the king got into the house, hopefully the snake-away helps deter them from coming inside again...

Username may check out here, even though this is the snake thread...

Personal opinion but I think those granules are useless.

This. They are useless.

Remove the hiding place. Remove the food source. Remove the snake.

They can sneak through the smallest hole. Steel wool or expandabo foam any crevice around your house.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.
