"Talk a little bit about snake bite kits. If a costumer is coming in and there worried about snakes. Where the first I have to tell you is there. The snakes they would really rather avoid you and so all really have to do is keep an eye out and look where you step. Never step over a log step on always step on peer over is there a snake there if not then you can step over. But if you do get bit by a venomous snake first thing that your going to have to is I know its hard but your going to have to try to stay calm that?s going to be the most important thing. If you panic your hearts going to start racing and pump that venom through you body. Second thing you?re going to need to evacuate your going to need to go get help. That?s going to be key even above the first snake bite kits. But it is kind of nice to have a snake bite kit it help draw some of the venom out. This is the old traditional style it?s got two cups that are used for suction. This is a little old school the scalpel used to cut it. That is actually not so good cause its going to create more trauma. This is the one I prefer this actually has much more suction than this. Looks really huge but you can eliminate a lot of this. It has great instructions on the back. Basically a razor blade to shave the hairs and a incredible suction cup and a syringe. You place it on there and it really draws it out. If you have any questions give your local outfitter a holler."
