The other night DC picked his jeans up off the bedroom floor and then proceeded to stand on a snake. It fell out of his pants! It was actually only a baby water snake which we often see swimming in the pond (Pukura) but we've never had one in the house. The picture is not the actual snake but one about the same size. Ours might have even been a bit smaller.
The water snakes are fascinating to watch swimming. You can spot them as they leave a 'V' shaped wake behind them and just their little heads poke out of the water.
They are scared of you so when the boys go swimming they are not a threat.
Note: the pics are not the actual snakes in our pond so may be a different type of snake.
