“Last week, some friends and I caught the most amount of snakes I've ever caught at a home! I was informed of seven green snakes hanging around the side of a pool. The domestic worker had hoped they'd leave and gave them a few days, but the numbers only increased! So it was time to relocate the snakes.
“Off I went, with south coast snake catchers Miguel & Micaela da Fonseca (visiting at the time), and Richard Mckibbin of The Lion Heart Experience. I received a photo of one, and we could tell it was a non-venomous green water snake. We were quite excited at the prospect of catching seven! They were above and below a grid of a drainage system on the side of a pool.”

n a lengthy Facebook post, he details how he caught the snakes and why this experience is so intriguing to him. In one part of the post, he says:
"Four vine snakes! Incredible! We could not believe it. Although, we were now scanning for more, pushing our luck! No more were seen, though, sadly. We presumed it was three males after a female.
"However, it turns out that it's two males and two females. They had to be together for mating. The homeowners did describe male combat - two snakes were wrapped around each other as they climbed, then they'd fall. That sounds like combat."
