Trish Wilcher said she was in her bedroom in her family's Augusta home when she spotted something on the floor.

Wilcher and her husband, Max, soon discovered the "fuzz" was a baby snake -- and there were 16 more babies underneath the bed, along with their mother. Wilcher posted photos of the snake family on Facebook. "I may need a cardiologist after this," she wrote on the social media site. Max Wilcher used a grabber tool to pick up each snake and placed them in a bag. The Wilchers released the snakes at a nearby creek. A wildlife trapper, who confirmed the reptiles were nonvenomous garter snakes, visited the home the next day and concluded there were no more serpents inside.
