Well, we had one in our garage this week...greenish and black, from what I could tell from several feet away. It was headed toward the closet where the trash cans are kept and, from there, was only about 12 ft. from coming into the kitchen and making itself at home. Once in the house there would be loads of places to hide (like under the bed?). Now I love and appreciate wildlife, but a snake occupying the house is more than I am up to. We are in the habit of cracking the garage door, opening the sliders and letting the breeze through. That will have to be rethought.

The good news is, when it sensed that we saw it, it was as eager to get away as we were to have it leave.
