Snakes generally will not attack unless provoked. It's best to not violate their territory and let them be.
 

Best way to protect yourself is to carefully get everyone including your pets out of the room immediately and shut the door, then call for assistance. Local rescue service or fire station, depending where you live, will normally come and catch it and remove.

 

If you are bitten the hospital needs to know what type of snake it was, before any treatment is given.

Watched this one being removed from a neighbours last year

Have no intention of violating their territory, if they don't violate mine.

But my house is fairly open plan downstairs and in the time it takes

to call international rescue the snake could be anywhere, my greatest 

concern being it could easily have climbed into the engine bay of my car.

But thanks for the positive input and adivce.

Why would you kill gecko or bother them, or kill a snake like this, absolute pointless.

Love having the small gecko around, but don't like

the big ones that have a habit of climbing behind

my fridge.

And for the record, can't recall the last time was

in mortal combat with a snake, normally I just

see them off the premises..

I wonder what the fine is.  And which member will rat him out...

 

In the photo, it looks like 2 snakes, possibly one eating the other?

 

 

Just the one fella, but gives you and idea of its size.

Thing is, 99% of snakes just want to go about their business and if given a way out will take it.

 

They can't eat you and really don't want to waste expensive venom biting you. 

If I see a snake in the garden quite happy to let them go about

their business, don't like it when they suddenly rear up from

behind some boxes or such.

I'm no expert, but I think he was a Radiated Rat Snake (Coelognathus radiatus) [Thai: งูทางมะพร้าว, ngu taang mapao], completely harmless rodent vacuum.

 

It's always wise to treat any snake as venomous and potentially deadly.

 

But unless he was presenting an immediate danger to you or yours one has to ask, why kill it?

Think you just answered your own question, "treat any snake as venomous"

Wifey thought, or rather was screaming that it was a cobra. Besides ended

up near my SUV and did not want it climbing in my engine bay. 

Clue is in the word "Korat", which seemingly

prints its own version of these forms.

Korat, in a world of its own, has a couple of garbage

forms of it's own making, nether of which are printable

online. One refers to penalties and the other to source

of funds, including your bank details.

only if entry is made using a re-entry permit

Well, if he does not have a re-entry permit, 

then it's party over for his extension.

Do believe you have to do your first report

in person, after which you will be able to 

make online reports again. 

You mention "bank letter obtained day before," always thought

this was required same day as applying for extension.

A colleague went to do his extension at Jomtien last week, correct paperwork more than enough funds in the bank for the required time. IO looked at his bank book picked an ‘anomaly’ out in it and said can’t do it, you used an agent the last time, go back to agent.

Went to korat immigration this week for renewal, everything OK until shock,

horror, name in bank book does not match name in passport, because middle

name in bank book missing, has always been accepted for previous extensions.

Stand-off ensued with imminent refusal on the cards. IO eventually relented and

said she would issue renewal. but I had to return next day with bank letter and

statement in full name and with same date.

Returned to my BKK branch where a brilliant young lady took matters in hand by

adjusting my account name, issuing a new bank book and printing out new letter

and statement. Returned to Korat and all sorted.

Big box of chocs on the way to my BKK lady friend.
