Indo-Chinese Ratsnake. Pretty sure this is your boy. Harmless but always be careful. Will keep the rats and mice out of the house.

Lots of snakes around everywhere at the beginning of rainy season. Their nice, warm burrows have been flooded out and they are looking for new homes.
Happens every year.

thanks for that.

my wife told me it was best to cut off their heads after they bit you so you could tell the doctors what had done it.

seems like very silly advice to me.

how do doctors know what ante venom to dish out in the absence of a physical identification?

When / if you get bitten, let us know. I'm curious about that as well.

Yes, I think so, but, because dogs are so much smaller than us, the venom works a lot quicker. By the time you find out your dog has been bitten, it's probably already too late.

Very good advice. Take the whole snake even better (make sure he's dead). Without knowing the doc can only guess based on your description.

With few exceptions not many snakes in Thailand super toxic. Even if accidentally bitten not particularly fatal and unless cornered are no threat to bite. Generally best to just let them go on their way. Do watch the dogs though they like to screw with snakes.

I like snakes.

I identified the banded krait I saw last week from a picture somewhere.

it has a very high toxic rating, rated lethal.

orange and black thing.

the info said it was too lazy to bit you unless you were to sort of accidentally put your hand in its mouth and tickle it.

Kraits and Cobra species are both very toxic. Some Viper species are but most in CM area (green) are mildly toxic. Dogs are most susceptible to Krait and Cobra bites because they are ground dwellers.

Dogs are ground dwelling? Is there another type I'm not aware of?

Cat snake maybe. Mildly toxic but hard to get them to bite you and give you a dose of poison.
