I found a snake (Swampster)

in an attic yesterday (birthday) too.

It was 5'2" grey haired, big bellied homeowner, who cheap-skated me out of a tankless install after I had gone to her house after hours, and quite possibly prevented major flooding!!!

Darn it, I promised I wasn't going to whine about it.

Next customer, please.

G'day mates, from the Swampster.

I'll tell ya 'bout RATS

Making a long story short........I had to repair a leaking drain line in a dairy. The leak was milk that represented itself under an offloading dock. (A sink was used to dump old, outdated product) Looked under that dock w/flash and if I saw one pair of red beady eyes, I saw a dozen.. Next day I showed up w/my 12 ga. semi loaded w/bird shot and emptied the magazine. Ahhh, I love the smell of gun powder in the morning!

Hey Brian,

you want some cheese with your whine!

Brian (Tankless) Wood

There's a left-handed pun

in there somewhere from a "Reliable" source.

I had a Kraft "Cheese" slice right above my whine.

I wanted to take a slice outta the pot bellied house snake, but......there I go again. I'll stick to beer instead of you-know-what.

This is a (cellophaned cheese) wrap for tonight.

Mike, see what you and your name started or was it me and my Liebfraumilch (sp) where's Ken when you need him.

It's 12.05 am, zonk time.

Swampster.

Snakes

Young guy who works for me has NO problem with snakes. I came back to my office one day and he is standing in the office with one in his hands, "Hey look what I found over at that the job ". AAHHHH.

He was on a job where the journyman was under a crawl space and this guy was handing him tools. Good thing the guy looked up when he asked for the 14". This guy had his hand out with a little garter snake in it. "What the *$#@ is the matter with you ".

They still give me the willies.

I found one

inside my overhead projector one day when I was doing a seminar in downtown Boston. It made the strangest shadow up there on the screen. You shoulda seen it! I burned my hand on the bulb trying to get it out. It was six feet long and as thick as Sheriff Murphy's bicep!

Snakes... No problem

But rats ! eeek.
Was in a crawl space a month ago , belly down trapped beneath some heating pipes . Rocks all around with no chance of a quick escape when there it was .... a pretty large DEAD rat right under my nose . Dead ones pose no threat but my minds eye was trying to convince me that he had no children or siblings in the area .
I do remember a newbie I worked with a few years running and screaming like a little girl at the sight of a mouse.(6'2 about 320 lbs no less)

ScottMP

Oh a small one then

Should have left him there Dan. Hot lamp.. they taste like chicken.

Snakes?

Hey when I was a lad (teenager) We (brother and I ) went with Dad & Grandpa duck hunting. Stayed over night before the start of the hunt. There were garter snakes all over the place. Brother and I gathered up two large grocery bags of them. Wondered what to do with two bags(20#'s) of snakes. We threw them into the canal . The water boiled snakes for 2-3 minutes after. It was fun till we smelled our hands. Snake S#%* stinks I'll tell you! haven't touched one since! bigugh

Bought a different house

Four years ago during a house inspection I came across multiple, very long, snake skins in the attic. Saw plenty of mice droppings and figured the slimy suckers were looking for the buffet.

It was one thing to find skins all over the crawl space. I was a little apprehensive about the furnace maintenance halfway under the house.

But with the attic, my mind envisioned snakes all over the house and I immediately found a different house.

I always freak in the tiny crawl space under those ancient houses. Is the "Crock Hunter" R.P.A. certified?
