Snake id and question

[mike033089]

So I found a snake on a glue trap just now in my garage. There is a door that goes out back down a small 2 step staircase to the backyard. It was found on the glue trap to the right of the door inside.  Found a similar one (not pictured) about same size all black/gray light underbelly earlier in the week to the left of the door.  I think this one is northern ring neck.  I don’t mind them but why are they in the garage?  Is it possible it crawled in under the door or could they be in a wall somewhere near the back door.  2 in one week has my brain turning.

Oh I am sure that they are in you walls I would not worry to much just make sure you check your bed before you crawl in. Also watch the tolet they love the sewer  pipe

Pour vegetable oil on the snake and it will come off. I catch them a lot at customer's houses. They come in accidentally.

thanks! will do that from this point on.  i assumed they were just coming in vs living within the garage but thought it was odd 2 in one week same area of garage.
