My DW seems to have a knack for finding critters in the house.
Thursday, DW reached into her makeup desk drawer and something moved. She screamed, stumbled backwards and fell on her rump. With her mobility issues, I had to call EMS for a lift assist. She said she had seen a snake. We look around, but do not see a snake. We all thought maybe she had hallucinated.
Later, I open the drawer, and a snake rests it's head on the edge of the drawer. I arm myself with her cane and a shovel. I yank the drawer out of the cabinet. The contents and the snake fall on the floor. The snake slithers off to a dark corner behind a waste basket. Shortly thereafter, the snake met its demise. It turned out to be a 5' long harmless garter snake.
Today, she sees a green frog in our LR. Thinking it a leaf, she bent to pick it up when it hopped. She runs over the hapless frog with her walker. She had me dispose of the now lifeless frog.
She now wants me to call a pest control service to keep these critters out of the house.
