I can't imagine why the snakes would be attracted to that house unless there is an infestation of something there that they eat - perhaps mice? That would be a much bigger concern than the snakes, per se. Snakes are clean and have a vital role in the ecosystem. Not that I'd want my house infested like that! I don't understand why they don't just hire someone to eradicate them. They're harmless garter snakes, and probably there are some teenagers not too far away who would enjoy rounding them up.

I saw a show about this house on Animal planet. There is no way I could live for in a house infested with snake, even if they aren't poison ones!!!
It was unreal wathching the snakes slither across the yard.

Oh my goodness, I would be outta there so fast. I live in the Arkansas Ozarks and a few years back the game and fish commission decided it would be a good idea to re-introduce rattle snakes to this area. So they drove up the mountin that I live on and started dropping out snakes. Then there would be a $500 fine for killing the snake. I just loaded my gun and told my hubby to get the check book. We rarely go outside without a snake gun on our hips. We have only seen two in the "Yard Area" over the last few years. But we see lots dead in the roads around, so I know they are here.
