More than 100 venomous snakes have been captured in a backyard in Sydney's west in what snake catchers said was their biggest find ever.

The home owners at Horsley Park noticed snakes disappearing into a mulch pile on their property over the past two weeks.

Reptile Relocation Sydney owner Cory Kerewaro said his snake catchers were called to the property last Friday after the owner's dog was bitten.

D'awww they're babies! So cute

Baby red bellies are indeed pretty cute, can confirm as I got to hold a live one in a jar once when I was a kid (some other kids caught it and were showing it off). Would definitely prefer they be cute somewhere that's not my backyard though...
