The nearest medical facility could be 2-3 hours drive (not to mention I probably have to walk few kilometers just to reach the car), barely have any access to phone network and cannot count on air transport. So: 1. what should I do if I had bitten by a snake? 2. what kind of treatments should I give to myself? 3. what tools/equipments should I always carry, since you said the snake bite kit is useless?
