And grab a viper in the raspberry patch or reaching for strawberry - too palatable. It's not fun to beat the snake with a shovel or a dog to chase a reptile at the dawn of the outside toilet. How to reduce the probability of encountering a dangerous reptile?

Cleaning

Perhaps the first thing to do - to restore order in the country. Regularly mow the grass, remove branches and other debris, hide in the place garden tools.

Pieces of slate, barrels, logs, etc. - all this is an attractive refuge for climbing, and therefore should not be on the site.

If the owners of the adjacent cottages for a long time did not appear in their possessions, then, for your own peace of mind, should lick and neighboring thicket. Organize compost heaps away from the property: snakes like to hide it from the elements and make their nests. But to defend his "home" and the offspring of vipers is to last.

The snakes are especially dangerous in the spring and in August - during the breeding season.

More effective means - scatter plot of cloth soaked in a herbicide or diesel fuel. This procedure should be repeated once a month.

As already noted, the reptiles do not like vibrations. Conclusion - often convened in the country house guests there or arrange a workshop for wood processing. Well, seriously, you can do "little blood" and to place around the site a few "wind turbines".

If you believe the national experience, get rid of the snakes as possible and with the help of natural wool. It needs to be expanded at the threshold of the house and other buildings, as well as in all places where the living can get "lace".

extermination

Therefore, if you live mice, and we should expect the appearance of a hunter to them, and as practice shows - very clever! At this point of the two evils would have to choose the lesser. However, you can make the country a "super-hunter." For example, a hedgehog.

This method is suitable if: 1. You often happens in the country and will feed a hedgehog, or he will run away. 2. You do not have chickens: the hedgehog will eat and at the same time. 3. You will not regret berries: they also love hedgehogs.

Forum users are advised to consider the following to not inadvertently stumble upon the serpent:

• under the house and a shed on stilts need to shed herbicide or nitrate;
• porch open to do, under it too watered "chemistry";
• seal the gaps in the floor of a barn and other farm building;
• in shady places to put rags soaked in herbicide;
• on the doors outside toilet and shower hang "stuchalki" and rattle them before you enter the building;
• when visiting a forest or overgrown areas wear boots or shoes;
• protect children's sandboxes, houses and woodpile, spilling chemicals on a distance of 2-3 meters from them.

Be sure to tell the children about snakes. For example, read a story by Kipling. Explain that these animals are very dangerous, they can not be missed, as well as pieces of slate, pipes and other items, which can crawl into the animal.

At the cottage should be kept first-aid kit bites. It should be:

• antipyretics;
• cardiovascular drugs;
• drugs against inflammation and allergies;
• broad-spectrum antibiotics;
• pain relievers;
• means for increasing blood pressure.

Before his death, these animals emit a distinctive odor, which will bring together several reptiles (and there may be a few dozen!). It is better to get rid of trouble crawling. If, however, you had to kill a viper, is not touching her hands, keep it away from the house. The same should be done with a faded snakeskin: the smell of her pet looking for his territory.

If, however, you are bitten by a snake, you need:

• move as little as possible and not to panic due to tachycardia poison spread rapidly through the body;
• drink a few glasses of water, juice (not only coffee and no alcohol!);
• to the site of the bite to apply something cold to reduce swelling;
• remove all the rings from her fingers: in the case of edema they cause you pain.

• cut, cauterize the wound and pull - it can lead to infection and gangrene;
• better not to suck the venom out of the wound or do this if you have no wounds or mucous damaged teeth, but this is difficult to be sure.

The main thing with bite - as quickly as possible to find medical care. In the medical facility would be required heparin: it is more effective than serum.
