Man notices ‘a few’ rattlesnakes under house, snake catcher shows up and removes 45

A Texas man’s world was rattled recently after he learned he was sharing his home with several dozen deadly rattlesnakes.

Nathan Hawkins, the owner of Big Country Snake Removal, responded to a call of “a few snakes” under a home in Albany, Texas, but what he found was far more than “a few.”

Big Country Snake Removal responded to a home in Albany, Texas, after a man who was trying to restore his cable climbed under the house and saw “a few” snakes.

According to the post, high winds had caused the man’s tv/cable to act up so he crawled under his home to see what was going on, saw “a few” snakes and quickly crawled out.

“We arrived around lunchtime and as soon as I crawled under I could immediately see that there was far more than a ‘few,'” said Hawkins.

The company ended up removing 45 rattlesnakes from beneath the house.

“The interesting thing here was they only see a few each year, their yard was very well kept and their house was nice and clean,” he explained. “My point is, we run into this scenario often, and people don’t think it can happen to them. Rattlesnakes don’t care how nice your house is or what kind of car you drive- they care simply about survival.”

The video has now been viewed over 1.6 million times.

Okay, here it is..... 45 rattlesnakes. Our day started off with a quick removal in Woodson, Texas. After the Woodson removal, we headed back south to a house between Baird and Albany. Due to the high winds, their tv/cable was acting up, so a gentleman crawled under to see what was going on. He saw a “few” snakes and quickly crawled out.... The interesting thing here was they only see a few each year, their yard was very well kept and their house was nice and clean.... My point is, we run into this scenario often, and people don’t think it can happen to them. As I stated in the teaser video, rattlesnakes don’t care how nice your house is or what kind car you drive- they care simply about survival. We arrived around lunchtime and as soon as I crawled under I could immediately see that there was far more than a “few.” 😜The video will take over from here... If you’d like an inspection/removal, need rattlesnake avoidance training for your dog, or are interested in snake-proof fencing, please let me know.
