A SNAKE is lurking in this seemingly innocent kitchen... Can you spot it?

Puzzled social media users have been challenged by Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers 24/7 to find the hidden reptile in this kitchen photo.

Facebook users were left baffled while attempting to locate the camouflaged serpent.

The photo shows two wooden kitchen stools pushed close together with some magazines placed on top.

One user, Melissa Neuendorf, joked: “The newest edition of Where’s Wally I can never find the snake.”

Another added: “I’m doomed, doomed I tell you! In a picture of two chairs I do not see a snake.”

“It’s called spot the snake so I can’t say it’s teeny tiny hiding under the papers.

“So unless it’s camouflaged itself to look like a magazine I see nothing, nothing at all…for the love.”

Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers also teased there would be “extra points” for snake-savvy users who can guess the species.

The tiny serpent had sneakily curled itself around the back leg of the right-hand stool.

Some sharp-eyed users even had a stab at guessing the species.

One wrote: “Too hard to get a look to figure out the species, but gotta be a scrub python at that size right???”

Snake catcher Lockie Gilding, who attended the removal in Ninderry, Queensland, said the reptile was a brown tree snake.

Gilding also stated that the cheeky snake was a hatchling, less than a year old.

Although brown tree snakes are slightly venomous, they are not considered to be dangerous to people who may encounter them.

Despite this, one user was still freaked out at the sighting, commenting: “even though it’s small I’d leave it well alone - some of those small snakes are as toxic as those bigger ones”.

This comes after snake-catching company Snake Catchers Brisbane & Gold Coast posted their own snaps to Facebook on Friday, challenging users to spot a deadly snake in a swimming pool.

An optical illusion was also shared on TikTok last week that claimed only 1% of people could spot the reptile hiding in a tree.
