In an interview with the Ladysmith Herald, Cilliers said that he and his son were called out to the area after fearful residents spotted the snake.
“Residents should remain calm and contact me as soon as possible if they spot a snake,” Cilliers stated.
“With all the rain and localised flooding in the area, numerous big snakes have been reported in the Ladysmith town, yes – in town,” Cilliers added.

Cilliers said that the province could see a lot more snake sightings, given the amount of wet weather it’s been having. According to the snake-catcher, the python would be released far away from residential areas.
