>>1770691Assuming you’re in Australia OP, but as an ausfag with an /out/ job myself and colleagues have similar to the pack shilled in this vid (i.e. absorbent patch cloth, two types of pressure bandage).
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=e4kX6znMXtAI have one colleague who was bitten in 2015 by a brown snake in far west QLD and still survived and wasn’t even particularly ill using the immobilising bandaging method and just chilling under a tree til helo showed up a few hours later. Was in hospital crook for a few days but otherwise okay.
In contrast a farmer’s wife who lives next to my parents in a region much closer to emergency services got bitten, her husband was a dumb fuck and sucked out the venom and used a torniquete and drove her 40 min to the hospital instead of waiting for ambo. Wife almost died of renal failure even tho local hospital stocks anti-venom, and was in hospital months for kidney shit.
Obviously colleague is a bit younger/healthier, but these country people are pretty accustomed to snakes and not exactly panicked.
tl;dr immobilising bandage kit, buy your own or buy, doesn’t matter
