Snake Bite First Aid Kit
Built on the success of our innovative SMART Bandage, the SURVIVAL Snake Bite KIT was designed for the Australian environment, given the fact that the 10 most venomous snake species on the planet live in Australia, not to mention the world’s deadliest arachnid, the funnel web spider.
It's debatable that the 10 most venomous snake species on the planet live in Australia. We are also home to the world’s deadliest arachnid, the funnel web spider. Despite this, not many people know how to treat a snake bite, far less identify a poisonous snake, a mistake we cannot afford to make. It is probably fair to say that most Australians are proud of our venomous snakes and spiders. Indeed, most of us have a story or two to tell about a near miss with a snake or a spider. It seems we Aussies tend to have a bit of a ‘she’ll be right’ attitude towards it all. But given how dangerous Australian snakes can be, surely we owe it to ourselves to learn as much as we can about first aid for snake and spider bites. Being prepared with both knowledge and equipment, not only provides peace of mind, it could also be the difference between life and death.
