How can I be prepared for potential Snake Bites?
We recommend making sure you are equipped with the following products:Ā
TheĀ Fastaid Snake 'n' Spider Bite KitĀ fits snug in a backpack & contains hospital grade contents in case of an emergency. Comes with a nifty little Snake and Spider Identification Sheet booklet too
A great way to prevent a bite is by wearing gaiters as they protect the legs, but please note can never offer 100% protection against snake bites. The Sea to Summit Quagmire Canvas Gaiter is the most densely woven, puncture resistant gaiter that will help if walking through thick long grass & can not see snakes if they attack.
The Fastaid Trek Badger IIis a dual fold stretcher made for compact storage. Lightweight &high-strength it is specially designed for first aid emergencies inĀ industrial sites, great to use if someone needs to be immobilised and carried due to a snake bite.
With holiday season well & truly kicking in it's important to be prepared for that unexpected emergency! Accidents do happen & it's wise to be properly equipped with a First Aid Kit to suit your needs!
