A top snake catching expert has told how a customer refused to pay him for removing a deadly beast \u2013 so he threw it back into his house.<\/p>\n
Youtuber Colin Shoemark, who catches snakes for a living, was called to someone's house after a red bellied black snake was found.<\/p>\n
Measuring six-feet in length, it was found behind the fridge – it is the most commonly found venomous snake in Australia.<\/p>\n

And despite the homeowner calling the guy out to catch it, when it came time to pay, he simply refused, Daily Mail Australia reports.<\/p>\n
Recalling the bizarre 2017 incident, he said; \u201cThis isn't a free service because in the background I have insurance fees and all that sort of stuff to look after.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, I just tell them the rate and we agree on it and then I come out – usually if I don't get the snake I spend a bit of time with the people to tell them about it or try and identify the snake.<\/p>\n
\u201cI got there and he was panicking, which is pretty standard, it was in his kitchen, behind his fridge, so I had to pull the fridge out.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo this thing's trying to kill me the entire time – I get it in the bag and the dude started saying, 'Oh, this should be free and subsidised by the government, the council should pay for this'.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn't like it, it was the end of the day, I was pretty tired.<\/p>\n

\u201cI said, 'if you're not gonna pay me, I'm just gonna go and get out of here.\u201d<\/p>\n
So the newly-caught snake was once again freed and let out into the blokes kitchen.<\/p>\n
The man who refused to pay ended up jumping onto his kitchen table and threatened to call the police.<\/p>\n
However, Mr Shoemark commented that the police would \u201cprobably come in and watch me catch the snake.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cHe had the money, he was just being a d*** about it.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt's not like it's $500 (\u00a3285). <\/p>\n
\u201cIt's 150 bucks (\u00a385) and I'm the one risking my life and my sense of smell going forward.\u201d<\/p>\n
The man eventually paid him, and the snake was once again caught.<\/p>\n
