Family reports a snake in the toilet but then find a really nasty surprise Picture: Big Country Snake Removal

Finding a rattlesnake in your toilet must be nothing short of terrifying so our heart goes out to this family from Texas who were in for a much worse surprise.

What seemed to be one snake, turned out to be 13 more, and then another 10 – half of them babies – when a snake removal service was called in.

Nathan Hawkins, who runs Big Country Snake Removal, was the snake catcher called in to deal with the issue at a home in Buffalo Gap.

He explained the first snake was discovered by young Isac Mcfadden, when he got up to use the bathroom, and the reptile was then killed by his mother with a shovel.

But it was his ‘intuition’ that led him to giving the house a quick inspection.

‘If you do this long enough, you kind of understand snakes and what they do during certain times of the year,’ he told CBS News.

Sure enough a search of a storm cellar found 13 snakes huddled in the corner and an inspection underneath the house found the further 10.

‘With rattlesnakes, western diamondbacks in particular, they’re real communal animals during cooler months, they tend to live together in dens;’ he added. .

The total of 24 snakes were removed by the snake catcher, who, instead of killing the reptiles, either relocates them or donates them to local colleges to study.

you would think the civilization that invented smartphones and wireless things would invent a simple toilet mesh or cage to prevent snakes from popping up on toilets, stop grab assing M.I.T.

 

[Grateful Dude]

Yep. Fuck rattlesnakes.

 

[Jesus X]

whoever can figure out how to stop this can probably become a millionaire peoples fear with sell this product.

We don't have fancy flushing toilets up here in Alaska, but then we don't have no fancy snakes tryin to crawl up in our guts cause it's too damn cold up here... shucks!

When i fead the Nasty Surprize part I thought it wws going to turn out that the rattesnake was actuallg an uber gigantic turd.

I am disappoint.

A mesh through which your power shits can fit but a rattlesnake can't is beyond our engineering capabilities!!

Maybe just have a grinder down there or smth..a macerator that's the one!

something has to be built can't be that much of an engineer ing feat.

if engineers can't handle it have chemistry handle it
maybe some type of liquid that repels reptiles and vermin.

That would make me slightly nervous about using the toilet.............ever again

in California we have a ton of rattlesnakes too, I have seen them 4 times in rancho palos verdes and in the san gabriel mountains. we have rattlesnake signs in hiking trails. I have only seen a rattlesnake once in Mexico.

Was mostly kidding because there's not much point to do this, rarely ever happens..way too sparse occurrence for there to be a need to form a new industry standard and even then,bleach would probably be the way to go. If there's a snake in your toilet I'm willing to bet it probably hasn't seen too many detergents down there.

It would be hilarious if some chemists got together to make a snake-free toilet detergent piggybacking on stories like this.

I live in Texas too. I see rattlers all the time (at work, not in toilets lol), way too often for my liking. With all the rain the past couple years, they're doing well. Rain is good for vegetation, vegetation is good for rodents, rodents are good for snakes. They are healthy and well fed right now.

Fortunately for me, they are not shovel-proof. This is the most recent one, little fucker almost got my hand.

Remember, they are more scared of you than you are of them. Give them their room, and let them be. If you try to take a shit on them, don't be surprised if they bite your balls.

 

[Grateful Dude]

they are more scared of you than you are of them

This is not true in my experience.

If you try to take a shit on them, don't be surprised if they bite your balls

But I totally agree with this

 

[Rambo John J]

dang your right
gonna be a boom year for predators
boom year for all nature really

Ya fuck that

Im squatting outside.....I already do my # 1s outside....time to move the #2s out also

[mysticmac]

I was hoping this was going to be about poop.

 

[Mix6APlix]

This is not true in my experience.


But I totally agree with this

The one time I encountered a rattlesnake in the wild, I jumped back like a scared little girl. As a little stoner who has spent months camping and a billion hours partying in local woods, I never knew we had them around. Until the one magically appeared about a foot away from me, all coiled up in the traditional 'I'm going to bite you now" pose. Literally I almost shit myself.

Dude, I still do that and I've seen them a lot. I know a couple dudes that have been bit. It's bad news man. Some of them will try to get away, but some are also very aggressive and will come at you. Scary motherfuckers. Little monsters.

I've been within 20 feet of a mother black bear with 2 cubs in the wild. I've been within 30 of a very non compliant bull moose. The bears just kept walking. The moose just stood it's ground. At their respective times, I was more scared of the bears. Looking back, I should have been terrified of the moose. The snake scared me more than either.
