Snake in my garage?

[paddyj]

Pretty sure I have found a baby snake in my garage, being from Ireland and knowing nothing about them, is this anything I need to be worried about? I'm living in Sydney so wasn't expecting to find anything like this in my house!

that doesnt even look like a snake how big is it?

[calais_cruzin]

[Wagon_Wheel]

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!
Its no snake... looks like a giant bloody leach or somthin
Thats messed up lol

[calais_304]

defiently not a snake...well any snake i've ever seen before! maybe a slug of some sort?? at first glance i thought eel but i havn't heard of eels wandering over land and residing in someones garage so i suggest slug or worm

[Emackulation]

lul, dont look like a snake to me either, just a slug or somthing.

He got squashed when I was moving some boxes around so he is very flattened. He's still squirming around so I haven't gone very close to him. He's quite small, about 6 inches if you unrolled him. He is moving exactly like a snake and sticks his head up when I poke him with a stick!

[calais_cruzin]

Get sum more pics of of it, that one ya cant really tell much, by the looks it dont even have a head in that pic

Looks like a tape worm to me

Nasty parasitic worm that lives in the gut of other animals. Birds often have them..

Don't touch it and get a shovel to scoop it up and bin it...

It's meant to be flat as the name says "TAPE" worm..

Which now has put me off my lunch

That was exactly my first thought.

[paddyj]

Couldn't get any better photos of it, thing was so disgusting when I got it out I just had to dump it in the bin. Better get the worming tablets for the dog, just in case!

going by that link i'd say it was a "flat" worm, and it says they regenerate after being cut up, so it is probably still alive, there's probably 4 of them now.

[Wagon_Wheel]

Lol tape worm..... rnt they spose to be tiny???
Not 6 inches....
That flat worm pic looks very similar
