Residents across Melbourne's south-eastern suburbs have told of shaking houses and loud "bangs" after two small earthquakes rocked the area last night.

Geoscience Australia recorded magnitude 3 and 2.6 earthquakes south of Frankston within 13 seconds of each other at 6.21pm. There have been no reports of injuries or serious damage to property.





Frankston resident Rosa Totaro said she was scared and ran from her double-storey house when she felt the tremor.

She said window and cabinet glass shook, and she believed the tremor was stronger than those felt on two previous occasions over the last year.
