A Filipina housemaid in Saudi Arabia demonstrated extreme courage when she killed a snake that crawled inside the house and threatened the life of her employer’s two children, a newspaper reported on Thursday.

The maid was in the kitchen when she heard the two little boy and girl shouting for her after seeing the uninvited reptile inside their room.

“She rushed towards the children and took them out of the house as their parents were away. She then went back in and chased the snake until she killed it,” Sada newspaper said in a report from the Southern rugged town of Bisha.

It said the maid’s employer promised to give her a cash reward for her 'bravery and saving the life of his children.'
