Lady speaks on signs of snake presence

Her help had initially informed her about seeing a snake, causing her to rush out of the house with her children, scolding the helper for not raising an alarm sooner.

The incident led to a search for snake hunters, who eventually discovered a large snake in the compound.

The lady described the reptile as being taller than she was, making it the biggest snake she had ever seen.

Further investigations revealed more snakes in the area, including in neighbouring houses.

The snake hunters, who were based in Nyanya, Abuja, were said to have caught several snakes, including some found in the lady's compound and in a neighbour's ceiling.

The lady identified as @mrs_ogwuche on TikTok expressed her gratitude that the snakes were finally removed, saying she had been living in fear.

Speaking further, the lady used her platform to shed light on the signs that indicate the presence of snakes in a house.

She noted that snakes do not just hide, they move around, and someone is likely to spot them if they are observant.

She also warned that seeing baby snakes or shed skins around the house could be indicative of a larger problem.

She said in part:

"So I've been getting this particular question a lot about why I called snake hunters and people asking how do you know that a snake is in your house. So I will just quickly do a story time of why we called for them. The truth is, if you have snakes in your house, you will see signs, snakes don't just hide, they move around, and somebody must have seen them one day, except if you are not very observant. Somebody would have seen something, like you will feel it in your guts that there are snakes in this house, right? You will see baby snakes around. Anytime you begin to see small green snake, the snake's mother is somewhere there too."

"God saves us from a lot we don’t even know. I have been with a snake in my room for over two weeks without me knowing and am living alone. The first time I saw it was when I was looking for what to wear to the market, I was opening my cloth pallet one by one to choose the one I will wear, immediately I opened the third, the snake moved immediately, I didn’t see it well so I wasn’t sure, but my instinct told me, Since I wasn’t sure of what I saw I brushed it off and continued with what I was looking for. Me seeing it again was in my kitchen after two weeks of noticing it in my room. God really saved me even when I didn’t know am in a great danger. I can’t thank Him enough."
