An ice-cool grandmother caught a rat snake with bare hands when it entered their garage.

The 85-year-old woman found her grandchildren panicking as a serpent climbed up the chicken wire fence on the back of their home in Surin province, Thailand, on May 28.

Without any words, the pensioner took a rake from the pile of tools and used it to pull the snake down before securing it with her hands.

Footage shows the calm senior scaring the rat snake with the farming equipment before dragging it outside. The snake tried to wiggle away but the old woman's grip on its head was firm.

Her grandchild Rinlada Luande said: ‘The snake entered the wrong house. Our grandma doesn't fear anything.'

The snake was released back into the woods after being caught.
