🚽 4 Creatures That Can Crawl Through Bathroom Pipes — and How to Stop Them 🕷️🐍🪳🐀
Your bathroom should be a place of peace — not panic. But did you know that certain creatures can actually crawl up through your plumbing and end up right in your toilet or sink? 😱
Here are four common intruders, how they get in, and — most importantly — how to stop them.
1. 🐀 Rats
Why they come:
Rats are strong swimmers and can travel long distances through sewer pipes. If there’s a break or opening in your plumbing system, they may surface right in your toilet bowl.
How to stop them:
Install a rat flap or one-way valve in your toilet pipe.
Seal cracks in the foundation and around pipe entry points.
Avoid flushing food waste — it can attract them.
2. 🐍 Snakes
Why they come:
Snakes, especially in warm climates, can enter pipes in search of water or prey. Smaller species can slither through drain pipes, emerging unexpectedly in bathrooms.
