I tried to fix the rubber seal on my washing machine when it started to move – people are now ‘scared of doing laundry’
A HOMEOWNER made a rattling discovery when they attempted to fix their washing machine.
When the rubber seal on the home appliance started to move, they realized things weren’t as they seemed.
Bri (@briii1993) shared the experience in a viral TikTok video.
She explained that her laundry machine’s rubber seal had come loose.
In an attempt to repair it, she recruited help to put the seal back in its place.
Bri quickly realized the seal wasn’t the problem at all.
“When you go to fix the loose rubber seal on your washer and it starts moving,” she said.
Her helper removed a snake from the seal’s crevices, laughing as he did.
Her viewers couldn’t help but recoil at the s-s-sight of the animal.
“I’m tired of TikTok unlocking new fears,” joked one commenter.
“As if I don’t have enough to worry about, now I gotta check the washer for snakes,” agreed another.
“And now I’m scared of doing laundry,” echoed a third.
“Well, I’m headed for the nut house now,” said one viewer.
“I am terrified of snakes. Sometimes shoelaces freak me out.”
One viewer said they would’ve taken extra measures if it were them.
“Oh no, I would have thrown away the whole washer,” they said.
Another joked that hiss would’ve been the end of their run.
“I would’ve passed away,” they said.
Viewers who were well-versed with animals, however, explained that the critter is actually gentle.
“Rat snakes just love to get into weird places. Completely harmless and goofy animals,” said one commenter.
“They won’t hurt you. They only want a snoot boop,” added another.
“Yes but definitely sneaky. They end up anywhere,” said a third.
