Snake In My Roof by xavuv: 10:00am On May 14, 2019
Hello everyone,

There is snake living in my roof. It has been over 2 years now the reptile has been living in there. I first noticed it sometimes in 2017 when i saw snake skin in my roof. I have blocked all entry holes for lizard and the likes thinking the snake would die or leave due to starvation ....but it didnt leave and the snake seems to be thriving in there. I dont know what its eating.

I taught of fumigation but i think the snake can escape the fumigation odor because it can easily hide in the deep block holes.

I cant go in there, as am writing this i can hear the snake moving all about in my attic.

What can i do to get rid of it?

MODS: If its not too much i want this in front page for better audience or opinions.

Lala must have a better option
I'm sure he won't want it to escape, just send him your house address and he'll do the needful in fetching the Slithery creature alive.

1)Buy carbide spread inside your house before throwing into the roof,it will find it's way out.u spread inside your house so that when it perceive it while leaving the roof it will go somewhere else....
2)get fire wood ,burn native pepper and dry bones you can get from those who sell meat, the smell Chases it...
3)Garlic also drives them...
4)lemon grass,plant it around your house....

I can bet there is no snake in your ceiling. It is reptile that is disturbing your ceiling. And it is normal in most houses

I have seen snake skin inside the sailing in 2017. Very long skin. I guess the snake been living inside the top block holes before the house was roofed. It never want to leave.

If you have seen the long skin shade, then it's most likely a black cobra. It has a strong survival skill and can adapt to any unhealthy environment, holes, dark spaces etc. If you are sure you don't have rats/rodents in the house then the serpent is feeding on wall geckoes. That explains why it survived this long. If you are really convinced that you have a snake up there, then your best option is to call the service of Hausa snake charmers. Any other options will be dangerous as the snake will be threatened by the invasion of its territory. It can fight to death. If you are in the north, snake charmers are everywhere. If you are in Lagos, you can get them in IdiAraba, Obalende, Mile12, or even Agege. For a fee of N10, 000 they can safely remove any poisonous reptile from your house.

The thing is snakes mostly eat live tasty snacks like lizards, rats, chickens, etc. I dont know how to poison these snacks i mentioned and put them up there.

I have already put a word out to friends who can link me up with snake charmers.

This kind of gist is sending shivers down my spine.. U were practically living with a dangerous creature ... who was not paying rent... and for two years or more for that matter.. haba!

I'm guessing you gonna teach me on how one can get his eyes closed at night knowing fully well that a dangerous snake is living with him.. Some people are way too 'tough' for my liking..

Spread large quantity of carbide on the roof and inside your house. Do that on a rainy day when there is less heat to avoid explosion . The snake will find its way out quickly.

Over two years? You mean it never left that spot for over two years? Call people to help you get rid of it; you can't do it alone. Be safe.

2 years? Where do you stay?

Boiled eggs actually kill snakes. They cant digest the shell so it kinda chokes them to death.

Look for snake catchers to sort you out.

Snake is risky to have as a tenant, because of its slippery nature, it can feed on you

Those snake catchers must be around with you for some days and night to hear the sound and detect the spot or location

While you are searching for them, get bitter kola up to hundreds and spread around there in the ceiling

There is this flowers that scares snake in the compound.

The Snake is only up there while we r down here, we don't ever see.long time ago,i Went to fix light bulb in the ceiling that's when i noticed snake skin.

The only place it could come out from is the man hole in the ceiling the man hole is well covered too. Ceiling is POP made, so the snake is well sealed up . i left it for 2 years thinking it would die of hunger. Surprisingly, it did not. Like GarbaAudu mention the thing been feeding on wall geckos( omo online).
