You lucky devil! I just spent a week evicting a mouse that found his way into my pantry. Sure wish I had a snake in my yard, like the (almost) pet Rat Snake that kept my chicken coop rat-free, back in Texas!

I assure you, a black snake didn't make that hole. If he's actually living there, it's because he ate the mouse or RAT that made that hole. You should reward him be leaving him alone, to keep actual pests away!

A beautiful, non-venomous, black snake would make a better neighbor than most of the humans I've lived next to over the years!
