Cathy Moodley Chetty commented:
“Just out of curiosity, why are there always mambas in Inanda? I live in Phoenix and I've never seen or heard of a mamba being caught or spotted close by.”

“Do mambas or any snakes normally reverse when pressed down during capture?”

“A BEDROOM? WOW.”
Nick Evans rescues 7 black mambas in 1 week
Meanwhile, Briefly News previously reported that Nick Evans, one of South Africa's most famous snake catchers, achieved an impressive feat. He captured seven black mambas in one week. The slippery serpents were not easy to get to, and due to their highly hazardous nature, it was hazardous work.
Nick managed to rescue and relocate all the snakes he caught.
"Three mambas this afternoon. Missed this sort of mamba activity! The first one was in Inanda. I expected a tricky search, but as I opened the door, it was right in front of me. The second one was at my friend's house in Westville. It was in a small palm tree, and made for a tricky catch,” he said.
