DOHA: A house owner in Al Khisa neighbourhood off Shamal Road has claimed that he found his home suddenly invaded by snakes of different species and colours, making him and his family members panic and fear for their lives.
The house is behind Al Khisa Petrol Station.
“We are shocked to see so many snakes in the yard of my house,” the houseowner told local Arabic daily Al Raya.
A large number of snakes in different colours and species attacked his house, he added.
The man said he saw snakes in his house for the first time and called the municipality to provide an appropriate solution to curb the spread of snakes.
But so far efforts of the municipality have not borne fruit.
“So I have taken the matter in my hand and killed a lot of snakes.
“Now it has become like a job for me to look for snakes in their possible hideouts and get rid of them,” he added.
