If you have Turkish neighbours, ask them to call pest control for you.  Good luck

Hi Gary, I don't blame Ilknur for staying away! I don't want to sound alarmist but if it has a V shaped head it sounds like a young Ottoman Viper which isn't very nice (young or old. Previous advise to get expert pest control in, is definitely sound. Don't do it yourself!!

Gary where do you live?  OK I panic Reptiles yuk, last year I spent a week doing the garden, hours later I heard a rustle of stones by the balcony, when I looked over the side the neighbours young kitten had a snake and was playing with it, the snake hit the kitten 5 times and we never saw either again.
I had the screaming ad-dabs, I purchased a garden blower/sucker/shredder, now before I do the garden Gordon has to use the shredder to get rid and kill anything that will send me over the edge.


Please Gary where do you live, and please let me know that you have killed it. 
(all you animal lovers out there I don't care; KILL IT)

I don't think you should tell your wife it has gone Gary, from a woman's point of view, I am the total same as you Loz and would not want to be anywhere near a place that I thought had a snake in it!
I am aware there are snakes in Turkey and we often stand at the river by the Pelin looking for water snakes of which we have seen a few,I dont mind them as they are in the river and I hope that is where their home is   made me realise we have to do something about the biggish gap we have under our front door in Turkey as I have always had thoughts that a snake could quite easily slither in! not really sure what we can do though.
