Venomous Snakebite Education

Spring and summer is a time for gardening and enjoying the outdoors, but it is also a time that we see more snakes and snake bites.  Nationally, over 7000 people are bitten by venomous snakes each year.  During the summer, HMH typically sees 5-10 venomous snake bites a month. 
Join us for a discussion on venomous snakes in our area, including the rattlesnake, copperhead, cottonmouth, and coral snake.  The panel of experts will discuss how to avoid being bitten, myths/misconceptions on what to do if you are bitten, and first aid techniques.  There will also be a presentation with live snakes to show how quickly snakes can strike.  Bring a friend and plan to join us for this informative discussion!  Please RSVP to 936-291-4599 or via email.
