In another story, Briefly News reported that snake rescuer Nick Evans has been kept busy by the many slithery serpents in and around Durban. However, he has been to one particular home one too many times over the past few weeks as he caught a sixth black mamba.

He received a call from a Queensburgh resident about a snake in a hole in the ground after it appeared in a woman’s doorway.

“Usually, at this property, the mambas are sprawled out on beams, on the side of the property. You look down on them. Well, today, everyone's worst fears came true - one of the mambas had come up to where one stands,” said Evans.
