$As the weather warms up, reported snake bites are increasing across the country. To provide peace of mind to people at home, on camping trips and on holidays, SURVIVAL’s Snake Bite KIT is designed so anyone can act quickly and confidently, even when panic sets in. Most people never expect to treat a snake bite, and that’s exactly why they freeze when it happens. SURVIVAL’s latest Gen 8 range is built around one simple idea: in an emergency, people don’t want to be reading instructions. Every item in the kit carries a pictogram showing what it’s for. The kit is built specifically for snake bites, plus major bleeds, fractures and sprains. https://survivalfirstaidkits.net.au/products/snake-bite-kit$
