Snake in the attic? Family shocked when they find out how many

Shore News Network

A family thought a snake was living in their attic and when they found out just how many there were, they were shocked. So was the snake catcher they hired.

Crikey! A family Down Under suspected a snake may be living on their roof, but after calling Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers, they found they had a much bigger problem.

The company ended up pulling 30 snakeskins and said there were about 20 more in the roof space of the home.


“Has There Been Any Snakes In Our Roof?” the company joked on Facebook. “Well to be completely honest, there have been a couple…at least! How is this haul from Dave when he conducted a roof inspection yesterday. He brought down over 30 snake skins out of the family’s roof space, and there was probably another 20 skins up there.”

That’s a good thing the company says.

“Snakes are great to have in your roof as they eat all the rodents,” they said. “Who doesn’t love free pest control?”
