| A Zululand woman resorted to spin-drying a black mamba after she saw it inside her washing machine, The Citizen reported on Monday. "I put the machine on spin-dry and waited," Margie Taylor told the publication. "There was a lot of banging and clonking... when the machine stopped we opened the lid... [and] the snake was suspended over the detergent container, looking dazed and confused, but still alive." She had first tried to contact her husband David and a local snake catcher, but was unsuccessful. By the time the spin-dryer had stopped, her husband had arrived home. He helped unplug the washing machine and take it outside. The machine lid was opened and the snake was pulled out with a coat hanger. It was then shot by her son. |

| #4 a gallon of bleach in the wash should have done it. |
