A woman used talcum powder and chopsticks to save a tiny gecko stuck in her silicone nipple cover.

Frame Peerayakorn was going through her clothes in the cabinet when she found the reptile trying wriggle out of the sticky intimate wear in Chonburi province, Thailand on July 19.

The worried woman spent 10 minutes pouring powder on the animal while holding two sets of disposable chopsitcks which she used to gently strip the animal off.

She thought the reptile was dead and after being successfully removed from the silicone before it crawled away when she poked it with the stick.

Caring Frame said: 'I didn't want to hurt the gecko so I was very careful. And I didn't want to leave it stuck there. I was happy when it was released.'
