Snake in my compost bin

Yup you read right I had a snake in my compost bin. Although after identifying it I wish I had not killed it. It was was plains blind snake. Apparently I think it was attracted to the ants that were in the bin and it was having a field day. They are harmless and look sorta like an earthworm with a metalic look to it.

Check it out what I saw. Its a link to a website on the little critter.

So next time you see one don't kill it. Its not venomous and certainly does some good getting rid of termites and and ants.
