While snakes are relatively shy and tend to avoid humans there are venomous and non-venomous snakes in South Africa that might end up in your home. It is best to not try dealing with a snake yourself unless you are well acquainted with the species and have some experience handling snakes. Venomous snakes such as a puff adder are very dangerous to you and your children and it is best to let a professional remove them from your home or business.
