• The man prioritised safety and tried to identify the snake's type but failed to do so while catching it
• The video got hilarious reactions from netizens, with many commenting on the snake's identity and the man's commentary

An American man, @2manycatsandadog, gave a whole new meaning to the words "handyman" after removing a small snake from his house using kitchen mittens. In a viral TikTok post, the man notices the serpent in the hallway before rushing to arm himself for the operation.

"Snake in my house, there's a snake in my house," he sang as he fit the mittens on.

Brave man prioritised safety first as the snake type was unknown to him

It is advisable not to try and carry a snake out by yourself, no matter the size or type. But the man has had a few run-ins with them before. While trying to pick the snake up, he was trying to figure out what kind of snake it was but failed to do so.
