This is how it was when my SIL lifted the lid

I think your SIL is thinking clearly by going home with you and if I were her - I wouldn't be going back until I had a certified notarized letter saying my house was snake free...and even then stepping back into that bathroom would be an issue....I'm still freaking out over the 3 mice we found in my garage when we cleaned it out - that's why my garage as a sewing room as stalled...

Ughhhhhhhh! was it going into the potty to drink or are snakes coming up out of their potty? Yuck and yuck again. I would not be able to sit on the potty any more.

Mice in the house do not bother me and even tho I can live with snakes not in my house please! I had Gertie the garter snake in the flowers for a few years till the dog decided Gertie had to go.
