Mr Lutzke’s car, along with two other vehicles, soon became trapped by the raging floodwaters.

Emergency services were contacted, but were delayed response due to the remote area and demand on rescue services.

In the meantime, Mr Lutzke and three other adults and three children sought refuge on top of one of the submerging vehicles.

They were soon joined by a slew of unexpected guests: spiders, crickets, rats, cockroaches, mice, snakes, cane toads, and frogs.

"The roof of my car and my legs became like their new home,” Mr Lutzke, an arachnophobic, said.

“It was an Indiana Jones-like insect invasion.”

Despite shaking in uncontrollable terror, Mr Lutzke demanded the six other stranded people be rescued first.

No one was injured in the incident, however Mr Lutzke’s car has since been written off.
