Luckily we haven't seen any around our place (yet). Once I found a baby snake in our kitchen/dining room. It was lucky that I saw it as it wrapped itself around Ginger's water bowl. We never found any other babies or the mother.

Not sure I had liked to meet a snake on my walk... We have had a few inside the kitchen, but fortunate they are harmless, not poisonous. Gosh! It's hot your side! We have about +30C with high humidity.<br />Enjoy the last days of the Holiday Season!
