Well, as you all might already know I killed a snake about 2 months ago ALL by myself! Everyone keeps asking me what kind of snake it was so I took pictures and decided to share. Here's what happened!
I just got back from Sunday Dinner at moms when I pulled up to our carport and my dog Belle was acting funny. I dismissed it thinking she just wanted attention. I got out of my car and took Emily in her room being that she had fallen asleep on the way back from playing hard at her grandmas. I remembered that I left a plate of food in the car, so I went back out to get it...at that point I noticed Belle (our German Sheppard) was sniffing and pacing back and forth to me and her crate. When she got closer to her Crate I heard a "hissing" sound, I looked and sure enough there was a snake!!!! a BIG snake!!!!Well I WAS NOT about to let that snake go being that my little Emily loves to play outside all the time, so I needed to figure out a way on how to kill it! This was about 5:30 in the evening and Ben still had a long ways to go at work, so I could not wait for him to come home. I called 2 of my neighbors to see if they would come over to help, but of course no one answered. So I decided to stalk the Snake for about 2 hours!
I made myself comfortable on Ben's 4-Wheeler and kept thinking to myself "How am I going to kill this snake!" Finally after about 20-30 minutes on the 4-wheeler I noticed the snake was moving towards the side of the house, I then got an idea! If I could get this snake out to the open field I can run it over with my car!!! well of course the snake kept close to the house and was not giving me a chance to kill it.
I then decided to get my hose and hose it off as much as possible and hopefully the pressure was strong enough to move it towards the open field. Well needless to say, it was making the snake mad, but I wasn't making it move towards the direction I wanted it to move, Finally it had enough of all the water that it started slithering faster towards the back of my brick wall which was a good thing because past my brick wall was open field! I kept spraying and spraying until it FINALLY went out to the open! I dropped the hose and ran and got my car and I ran over the snake!!!! Not only once, twice but FIVE times! I wanted to make sure that snake was dead! I decided it was dead enough, but I still was not going to take that chance so I left my car on top of it until Ben got home! By the time I got back in the house to get my camera to prove to everyone back in California that I did indeed kill a snake I noticed it was 7:30! Here's are the pictures of the snake before and after! LOL!
