[quote]A FLAWED plan to kill a snake has ended with a caravan destroyed by fire.
Police were called to a property on Finn Rd, Berry Springs on Wednesday night after a woman attempted to eradicate a snake she thought had slithered into her caravan.
The woman had earlier in the evening called snake catchers to remove the snake.
Humpty Doo police Constable Gary Palmer said the woman hatched a plan to get rid of the snake over several beers.
“(She) came up with a plan of extreme heat in the hope it may slither away to cooler area, and as such she set a fire at the base of the caravan,” he said.
“The snake remains at large and the caravan has been eradicated.”
Constable Palmer said after police and fire crews attended the scene, they left her in peace to continue to work on a plan of attack
