WTSP (Tampa Bay, Florida) 12 July 06 Trapping company in Orange County called to remove large snake
Orange County, Florida: A trapping company in Orange County has a big job to do: remove an eight-foot boa constrictor from underneath a house.
Neighbors spotted a red tail boa earlier this week huddled beneath a home in their neighborhood. And authorities believe the boa must have been released by its owner.
Residents are now worried the snake might try to eat nearby pets or even a small child. So they are keeping their pets inside, in case the boa comes out at night.
Some have tried using lights, shovels and rakes to get the snake out, but it hasn't budged.
Today, the trapping company will use a caged rat as bait to coax the boa constrictor out.
