For a brief moment, that man knew what true privilege was likeOpened up a termite bait station yesterday and found a snake inside. Was a garter snake but nonetheless a snake. Over the years I have found snakes, black widow spiders, scorpions and feeding rats and more inside these and rodent bait stations.
