Snakes and Creepy-crawlies
Though the deserts in particular are home to a wide assortment of poisonous creatures , these are rarely aggressive towards humans. To avoid trouble, observe obvious precautions. Don't attempt to handle wildlife. Keep your eyes open as you walk, and watch where you put your hands when scrambling over obstacles. Shake out shoes, clothing and bedding before use. Back off if you do spot a creature, to give it room to escape. If you are bitten or stung, current medical thinking rejects the concept of cutting yourself open and attempting to suck out the venom. Whether snake, scorpion or spider is responsible, apply a cold compress to the wound, constrict the area with a tourniquet to prevent the spread of venom, drink lots of water, and bring your temperature down by resting in a shady area. Stay as calm as possible and seek medical help immediately
