A mother has made a frightening discovery while packing her child's lunch, a baby brown snake hiding inside the lip of the lid of the lunch box.
The woman, from Hahndorf in the Adelaide Hills, was standing in a pantry and had already put an apple and two other snacks in the plastic box when she noticed the tiny eastern brown yesterday morning.
She quickly shut the lunch box and called a snake catcher.
Experts say the snake is around 2 weeks old (9NEWS
Rolly Burrell from Snake Catchers Adelaide told 9NEWS even though the reptile is only 2 weeks old it's still dangerous.
"Eastern brown snakes are the second deadliest land snake in the world. The baby snakes are as venomous as the adults," Mr Burrell said.
"It could have been very dangerous for the child if he put his hand in there, he could have been bitten and probably wouldn't have known he'd been bitten because it would have been a very soft bite," he said.
The eastern brown is the second deadliest land snake in the world and the babies are just as dangerous as the adults (9NEWS)
Snake catchers are receiving dozens of calls a day due to ideal breeding conditions (9NEWS)
Mr Burrell said they're receiving fifty to sixty phone calls a day to report eastern brown snakes around Adelaide.
"It's been a very good (breeding) season, the weather has been fantastic... the weather is fine and the humidity is there and that's what snakes need to hatch.
"Snakes don't like hot conditions so they've got to find somewhere to cool off. Obviously he's gone into the pantry.. maybe he was looking for something to eat," he said.
