An annoyed resident living in a condominium block in Thailand with a no-pets policy has come up with a twisted solution to counter a dog’s incessant barking in a neighbour’s unit: releasing two snakes along a corridor.

Sharing a video of the two snakes – one black and another brown – slithering at the corridor in a group chat with other neighbours, the resident said it was his way of protesting against the violation of the policy. The other residents living in the building the Ratchada area of Bangkok have in turned posted the video on their social media channels.
Addressing his neighbours, the snake owner said he loved animals and was responding to his neighbour’s claim of also being an animal-lover, according to The Bangkok Post newspaper.
“Today I brought two. Tomorrow I’ll bring more. I could not carry the bigger one today,” he said.
He did not identify the breed of his snakes but online users who saw his video said they were an expensive breed of pet snakes, the Thaiger news website reported.
Some residents at the building were quoted by local media as saying many people secretly kept dogs, cats, birds and other animals in their units despite the no-pets policy. The neighbour with the dog had been keeping it for two years, and the building management had ignored multiple noise complaints over the dog, according to the residents.
