Volgens die plaaslike slangvanger Andr\u00e9 du Preez, beter bekend as \u201cSilverfox\u201d, ervaar die streek vanjaar \u2019n oplewing in slange. <\/p>\n

\u201cVolgens my rekords ervaar ons vanjaar \u2019n oplewing in slange. Dit was \u2019n lang winter en ons nagte is nog redelik koud, so hulle bly honger. Nou jag hulle in die dag. Die lang winter beteken ook dat daar meer muise en rotte is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hy verduidelik ook dat hy tydens vanjaar se winter reeds sy vermoede gehad het oor die komende slang-seisoen.<\/p>\n

\u201cEk weet nie hoekom nie, maar as ek tydens die winter baie bruinslange en skaapstekers moet gaan haal, is dit altyd \u2019n aanduiding dat dit \u2019n bumper-<\/span>jaar gaan wees.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sedert die slangseisoen se amptelike aanbreek op 15 September het Du Preez al 66 slange verwyder.<\/p>\n

\u201cDie meeste daarvan is Kaapse kobras en pofadders. En 85% daarvan is uit residensi\u00eble eiendomme verwyder. Aangesien daar baie meer rotte en muise is, en hulle ook honger is, gaan soek hulle mos maar kos by huise en die slange volg hulle.\u201d <\/p>\n

In sy inskrywing op sosiale media waarsku hy mense om nie hul honde en katte se kos snags buite te laat nie, juis omdat rotte en muise daarvan sal eet.<\/p>\n

\u201cMuise en rotte = slange. Dis die natuur se manier om \u2019n balans te handhaaf. Kyk waar julle jul voete neersit, kyk as julle goed optel, loop met \u2019n flits as dit beurtkrag is. Sorg dat jul buitedeure nie openinge onder het nie. As daar een is, sit \u2019n sandsokkie voor . . . Probeer jou plek skoon hou. Gooi onnodige rommel weg. Sulke goed lok muise en rotte,\u201d skryf hy. <\/p>\n

Hy gee ook raad oor hoe \u2019n mens kan uitvind of jy \u2019n glibberig gas tuis het.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs jy vermoed daar is \u2019n slang in jou huis, wat maak jy? As ons slaap en daar is \u2019n slang in die huis, begin hulle beweeg, want daar is nie beweging en vibrasie nie. As jy opstaan en goed is van die tafel gestamp, is daar dalk \u2019n kuiergas. As jy goed hoor skuif in die nag is dit nog \u2019n teken. Vat \u2019n sif met meel. Strooi die meel in jou deur se kosyn op die vloer. As jy m\u00f4re-oggend opstaan en daar is sleep- of seilmerke, het jy \u2019n kuiergas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Volgens hom wis hy nie van enige mense wat sedert die seisoen se begin gepik is nie, maar wel van \u2019n paar honde. Hy waarsku ook dat daar al die afgelope twee jaar \u2019n tekort aan teengif vir slangbyte is. Hy raai ook mense aan om die toepassing African Snake Bite Institute op hul selfone af te laai.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaak nie saak waar jy is nie, sit jou ligging in en dit gee jou \u2019n nommer van \u2019n slangvanger naby jou. Dit help jou ook om slange te identifiseer.\u201d <\/p>\n

.<\/span> As jy deur \u2019n slang gebyt word, moet jy onmiddellik die hospitaal skakel en vir hulle s\u00ea dis \u2019n slangbyt en dat jy op pad is. Hou ook Silverfox se sommer byderhand \u2013 082 305 9209. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
