Phoenix homeowner 'shocked' when welcome mat starts rattling
In Arizona, apparently, welcome mats can be deceiving.
From the Phoenix-based Rattlesnake Solutions, which relocates problem snakes back into wild areas, via Instagram:
“A homeowner got a shock when the welcome mat started rattling at her! Bryce went out to discover a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake hiding under it. You can see the lump here.”
Understandable comment: “New nightmare unlocked.”
The lump is visible in the image atop this post. Below is video footage showing Bryce carefully lifting the mat with plastic tongs and capturing the venomous snake for relocation.
