Snake catcher tears apart kitchen in search of snake

A family in Queensland’s Sunshine Coast got the fright of their lives after a red-bellied black snake slithered into their kitchen.

Naturally, they called their local snake catchers to handle the situation, but little did they know, their reptilian friend had hidden himself so well that their kitchen would need to be torn apart in order to find him.

“This little Red Belly decided he wanted to get out of the rain and hang out in a [family’s] kitchen in Pacific Paradise,” Stu from The Snake Catcher 24/7 wrote on Facebook. “After a bit of time and effort I got him out from under the kitchen bench. It’s amazing the places snakes can get in to.”
