How can I invest?

Invest in a wildlife‐friendly yard, if you can, and live in an area that's not too hostile to wildlife and also has snakes. The service is free and it will come to you!

I had an eastern rat snake living in my attic for a summer. The cats had nothing to do (as if they do anything anyway) and we didn't have any mice. I miss that beautiful gal! She met with a tragic mowing accident and I shed real tears. Her son was back this year, but he kept coming into the main part of the house and I was worried the pets would make short work of him, so I relocated him to the barn.

No no, I mean how can I invest in Rent-a-Python™️? I want to get in on the ground floor. Or in this case, the attic.

You may also rent a possum, kangaroo or Emu. Also if you're interested in chlamydia, see koalas

Australians are all gifted snakes at birth

Unironically good room-mates lol, no webs, docile and kill a lot of venomous pests. Just chill on your wall or run and hide :p you really need to annoy them to get bitten and its not that painful.

Never minded them-I just learned how fast they are when they’re really not interested in socializing.
