SNAKEBITES SPIKE DURING HOT WEATHER, STUDY SAYS
As soon as he placed the package on the front door stoop, what sounded like rattling could be heard on the video. The delivery man then realized the source of the sound.
"Oh (expletive)," he said as he stepped over to the side of the stoop and away from the snake.
The video then cut to a shot with a rake in the foreground, and the deliveryman standing behind the box with a shovel.
He then uses the rake and shovel to dispose of the snake away from the home.
In a Facebook post about the incident, the homeowner shared a screenshot of a text the delivery man sent to the homeowner. She suggested that he be nominated for employee of the year.
