Hundreds of Queenslanders are bitten by snakes each year, with reports peaking in the warmer months. So how can we keep safe when they're on the move?
Already this year nearly 100 snake bites have been called in to Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS), including three in a single night.
Sometimes those bites are fatal.
The University of Queensland's Dr Christina Zdenek takes you through what to do if you spot a snake and how big a risk they pose.
