Oh fuck its a snake.

In the shitty trailer where I used to live, we had everything from giant cockroaches to skinks to, on two occasions, a snake get inside. I'll never forget the first time I spotted the damned thing. I turned towards the front door and saw a rat snake, several feet in length, CLINGING to the wall and door frame; up about as high as the light switch. I think I went to go, Idunno, get something (not sure what the hell I planned on doing), and it had moved on by the time I returned.

My grandfather ultimately came over, managed to step on the reptile's head (pinning it in place), and I grabbed the rest of it and tossed it into some container with a lid. It was released into the brush by the side of the road; a ways down from where I lived.

i Have these all over my house.

and what looks to be one of these or a mixture of them comes in when it rains outside

Why did I click those pics? I mean, I'm not generally a fan (except the little jumping house spiders, they're CUTE), but spiders don't particularly bother me... It's just, I don't... what did I expect to see?

i dont know to be honest, but i actually am trying to identify what these are i have
