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.

Can they/do they charm mice too? I have a mice problem in my house. For 6 months now I've been unable to get rid of them cry. Different poisons, rat glue. They avoid all of it. And the smell and sound they make drives me crazy

The fact is that starvation can not kill a snake Because the reptile is a cold blooded animal...guys go and get a snake catcher had if been u r in Jos we have enough snake catchers dat will use jaz to catch it be it spiritual or normal snake....

The person you are arguing with is right. What you just posted is a specie of lizard. A simple Google won't hurt.

Will I get myself a dog too after the cat gets rid of the mice? grin

Seriously now, the mice hide in those very narrow crevices and spaces between the cupboards, inside the washing machine. It would be a very tedious hunt for even the best of cats, and I do not think that I can be emotionally available for any pet right now

Insert small pins inside the boiled egg and dont peel the shell.Once it swallows it and tries to compress it with its muscle for digestion,then the pins will pop out and gbege go shele.It will be struggling with the pins which will eventually kill it.

Thanks. I already did this on the day i fumigated the ceiling.

Bro this your excuse of "it's living up while we're down" is not very good. It sounds like you're enjoying the company of the snake.

You didn't have to wait 2 years before seeking solution.

Yes u r right. I thought it would starve to death cuz i blocked all channels lizards use to get onside the ceiling.

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.
get some carbide and throw inside, good and reliable snake repellant, cheap too

Offpoint:

Lol, I'm a lover of snakes. I don't miss any snake TV shows on DSTV.

First of all, snakes don't chase their preys they ambush and strikes. All they need is one bite, once they strike once they won't even chase any prey, they'll wait for the venom to do it job within a minute. In between this time, no matter how far their prey ran to, they have the ability to track with their tongues... cuz as the prey is running its leaving behind smells which the snake pick up with their tongues and trace till the locate their prey effortlessly. most snakes have heat sensor, so they can hunt in total darkness.



.....
From all your story so far, I don't think there's a snake in your roof, if there's a snake in your compound or in your house they only came to hunt and leave, not to live.
Snakes avoid contact with us more than you can think of, they prefer their natural habitat.

I guess it is enjoying the warmth in the ceiling.

some months ago my security (a Fulani man) kill a 6 ft cobra in house ( yet to be completed). I ve done pop 4 all room save the parlor, he told me, with his family he was outside at night hanging out, when his wife went into the house to get something at night,she entered the parlor, what she saw was a black cobra, even when all doors and windows are closed. the husband came in and kill the snake, and since then I ve bin thinking how did it get into my house? . the only explanation then was its hiding inside the hollow of blocks and come out when the house is quiet. anytime I visit my house, I'm always very careful as i have this thinking, it's not the only one in the house. this tread has made me have a rethink, that indeed snakes can hide inside ceiling without the occupant noticing it. let me look for this charmers sharperly before moving in

You need to quickly set your entire roof on fire. Just take your family out and then burn down the roof, the snake must surely die in the fire.
