For instance, a typical antivenom vial costs $1,500 to $2,200, but a snakebite requires between 20 and 25 vials to be neutralized. If you add these up, a man bitten in the US by a venomous snake would have to pay $30,000 in pharmacy costs alone

And a lot of insurance will not cover the cost bolt all it takes is one unseen snake to ruin your day.

I will be wearing my snake boots 100% My step brother was following me in a sxs with no doors & rolled over what he thought was a stick and it flipped up in the cab - it was hanging from his jeans by one fang- no broken skin - but had to change underwear - sxs now has doors



I've probably caught over 3000 lbs of live rattlers and have been hit a total of 5 times, not many people are more aware of rattlers than I am. I won't get bit again! And the good news is I'm allergic to antivenom!


Yes! A Weatherby does kill them deader.
