    A family member has a technically ginormous one in the rafters of her QLD garage, reckon if it fell on the car the car would come off worse.
    Said it was great for the rats. I don't know the length but it was thicker than a big man's arm.

    Ok i just checked they are usually 2 m but I reckon this was well over 3m could believe it was 4m long. Big enough to give a human a go I reckon.

    My Mum's place in rural QLD features a python in the rafters of the patio. Great for rodent control.
