Portland, OR, November 9, 2026 — A recent move into a new home in Salvisa, Kentucky, has taken a disturbing turn for a couple who discovered a significant snake infestation shortly after settling in. The homeowners found at least 25 snakes, along with old snake eggs, within their newly purchased property just weeks after their move.
The discovery has raised concerns, particularly as the presence of the reptiles and eggs was not identified during previous home inspections conducted prior to the purchase. The specific type of snakes found was not provided.
Neighbors have reportedly commented on the property’s history, indicating that the home has long been known locally as ‘the snake house.’ This designation suggests a pre-existing issue with snakes at the property that may have been overlooked or not fully disclosed during the sales process.
Details regarding the actions taken by the homeowners following the discovery, or the status of any repairs or remediation efforts, were not immediately available. The contractor responsible for the previous home inspections has not been identified, and the outcome of those inspections in relation to this infestation remains unclear.
