Honorable Shaykh, some people claim that they remove snakes from houses, and they actually enter the house and bring out a snake. Is this sorcery, or is it a demonic miracle?

It is a demonic miracle; this is among the miracles of the devils. If you find a snake, kill it; that is what is prescribed.
There are five kinds of vermin which may be killed out and inside the Haramخمس فواسق يقتلن في الحل والحرم
Sunan an-Nasa'i 2881Sahih (Darussalam)
