He then told the tale about how he saw a male and female night adder at the same business premise while also spotting a third male. The female was more difficult to deal with because he had to dig for it while the third male vanished. He also mentioned it was mating season.

He ended off the tale by saying that peeps should take precautions with themselves and their pets. South Africans were quite curious about the species. See the comments below:

Linda Hammond said:

"Lots of night adders here on the farm, they keep the mice at bay and avoid humans, so im happy."

Chuma PA Mngadi commented:

"Thank you for this post, Nick. Interestingly, just last week, I spotted a medium-sized one on our driveway (we live up in Padfield Park). I almost contacted you, but I saw it was headed for the bush away from the house, so we let it be."
