Snakes in the sump basket

Just a fun one I thought I’d share. There was about a half-dozen gardener snakes in a sump basket today in a crawl space. It was full of water (breaker to the sump was off). It was in central MN… never seen that before. I was laughing, the client… not so much. There was also a bonus snake in the rim joist insulation. Fun stuff!

Video too:

I’m sure that made for an interesting day.

Snakes in a Sump Pump

“I’M TIRED OF THESE MOTHER EFFING SNAKES IN THESE MOTHER EFFING SUMP PUMPS”

We’re they stuck in there or just hangin out?

I had a prairie rattler sound off on me when I was in Kansas the other week, while I was still about 10 feet away from him. Seemed to be awfully ill tempered.

They are born pis sed off.

The snakes were just hanging out in there. There was a bunch of dead ladybugs in there too… maybe they were feeding on those, who knows. Can’t imagine running into a rattler or something else venemous, that’ll keep you on your toes.

Look like plumbing snakes to me.

LOL!

Democrat snakes.

Is that because they are waiting around for a free meal?:mrgreen:
