reported.....yep,....Mz. Jake and her Baby Jakes.....I'd have a talk with
Mr. Broom and remove it! Pronto!!! :-).....Then if DH didn't have time to
redue the vents,ect....I do so myself....JMTCW ((Uggghhh snakes!)).... :-)

Well, Sherry, did you ever get Mr. Slither out from your basement? Or are
you still guarding the top of the staircase from snake entry?:-) Liz


Ugh. No. It's still in there. Except it's not a basement, it's just a
cellar
(or a scare-hole, like they're called sometimes). It's not connected to
the
house at all. The temporaray solution is, we named it Jake. It seems just
giving it a name (plus finding out for sure it was just a bull
snake)....sort
of gave it a personality and took some of the evil-ness away. He / she
comes
out on the concrete top of the cellar about every morning, basks in the
sun,
then disappears when it gets hot.
I"m still not going in that cellar. I don't care how bad the weather gets.

We used to call them Storm Shelters - had one on every other block in the
town I lived in, late 60's in OK. Probably was built as a BOMB shelter
during the height of cold war in the 50's.

It's funny, I didn't realize till I was a grownup that everybody in the world
doesn't need a storm cellar. When we were kids, there were lots of dirt
cellars. Basically a hole in the ground reinforced and the top with a door. But
when you were inside, the walls were just dirt. Very few people had a concrete
cellar back then. When we first got married, 31 years ago, we had a mobile home
where we built this house years later. That's when we had the cellar built. I
was almost phobic about storms back then.
There are still a few fallout shelters here, too, at the houses built in the
early 60's. I remember in elementary school the Civil Defense distributed
literature for us to take home to our parents, one of them was plans on how to
convert your storm cellar into a fallout shelter.

I don't know if it's snake-wide.. But the snakes I know about, the females
are larger than the males. So chances are, if it's huge, it's mama

ROFL! Okay, can't you try to shoo Jake away while he/she is basking
outside? 'cause if it IS a "she" you could find a nest of babies in
there
before too long. Maybe use a broom or long-handled garden rake.

Jill

Ugh. Gross. I never thought about the possibility of a Jake-ette. The plan
is
for DH to re-do the vents & re-seal the door so he/she can't get back in
once
we catch him outside. . He's just been working so much the past week he
hasn't
had time to fool with it.
