Snake ID ??

Postby sy573mx » Wed Mar 12, 2014 9:58 pm

Hi all, New to the forum.
Found this little one slithering across my living room floor this evening, From Google and this forum i'm guessing this is a Brown House ?

I would like confirmation before handling - just to be safe.
I'm from Pretoria - Wonderboom South, Guess he was trying to find a dry spot with all this rain.
