Watch: Snake crawls out of woman’s bathroom scale

A mid-north woman was terrified after a snake wormed its way into the most unlikely of places.

A Barossa Valley woman had a brush with a particularly stealthy snake on Wednesday and its extraction was captured on film.

Footage obtained by 7 News Adelaide shows a snake catcher carefully prying open the lid of the woman’s bathroom scale with tools.

As he lifts it open, a baby brown snake slithers out from the crevice and tries to flee, as a woman is heard screaming in the background.

The snake catcher quickly grabs it by the tail before stuffing it into a bag and later releasing it at a nearby creek.

It is understood no one was injured.
