A mother is about to put her young son to bed when she makes a shocking discovery.
A quiet night is out of the question.
Mount Samson - In Australia, a ritual for a mother has become a shocking experience.
Tabitha Bennett wants her one-year-old son to go to bed one night, just like she does every day.
But this time putting them to bed was anything but routine.
Rather, it turned into a nightmare.
When a mother is about to put her son in the cot, she makes a chilling discovery
Because when the mother from Mount Samson, which is northwest of the metropolis Brisbane, switched on the light to put her son to bed, a shock went through her limbs.
A snake had curled up and made itself comfortable behind the bed.
"I was about to lean forward when I saw the snake was trapped behind the crib," Bennett told
Westside News
.
Her husband slept in the same room in a different bed with the family's three dogs and one cat.
They didn't even notice that an uninvited guest had crept into the room.
So the mum tried to catch or chase away the reptile, which is about one meter long, on her own.
But she didn't succeed, as
Daily Mail
reported.

After several failed attempts, she decided to seek professional help.
An expert who specializes in capturing and relocating stray snakes and lizards eventually solved the problem.
On site, Steve Brown determined that it was a harmless subspecies of carpet python commonly found in the region.

"Non-toxic, settled into cot before baby could," the snake catcher later wrote on his Facebook page.
One mother commented, "I wish I hadn't seen that...you ruined my night, now I'll be watching the baby monitor even more closely than usual." A shocking incident had also occurred in China.
Although her head was already severed, a snake bit a cook dead.
