So yesterday I am working in the shop. I go to get a plastic bag that I needed. As I walk past the bathroom door, I hear a hiss n see this black snake slithering to the bathroom n into the shower stall. It sure got my heart thumping. I figure I can get that snake out so I go get a grabber. I return n the snake is now behind the toilet. Good it is cornered I can get it.

WRONG. I can see the head n the tail then it just disappears. I figure it is coiled behind the toilet. But, I cannot see it. I take a closer look n snake is gone. I look at my toilet water pipe n see a little bit larger hole in the wall for exit of the pipe. Now I have a snake in the wall in a 16" on center wall framing area. I got some paper towel n plugged the hole. Then I put a 2x4 across the door threshold n placed a piece of railroad track to hold it in place n lock the snake in the bathroom. I then spend the rest of the day thinking how I am going to get that snake out. If anyone has a suggestion please advise.

So so this morning I will look thru the window to if the snake is out. I will just open the door n hope it just leaves. If it is not out, I plan to sprinkle some powder on the floor, place bags all over the place n open the hole. The bags will make noise to alert me n the powder will indicate snake movement if the bag trick does not work. I plan to clear the area so the snake can just slither out the shop door n back to the pasture. Wish me good luck.
