A cleaning crew preparing a foreclosed home for possible resale stepped into a snake pit, discovering containers filled with more than 120 snakes -- most, but not all, of them dead, reports Florida Today.
Barry Walter, 43, the homeowner, left 17 live snakes, which included three-foot-long ball pythons, king snakes and hognose snakes.
Officials also found extensive collections of comic books, Star Wars memorabilia and GI Joes inside the Palm Bay home.
"We got up to the door and smelled something real bad," said Ryan Slingsby, 25, who works for cleaning contractor Inafix. "That was when we saw the dead (python) in the window."
There were bags of rats in the refrigerator. This is probably the worst I've ever seen," said Slingsby.
I already fainted and came to!!!!
