Snake bite stun gun myth

(Before It's News)

We posted on our Facebook page:

Keith sent us a message with this question, what do you think? “Did you know you can neutralize the venom of a snake bite or spider bite with a stun gun?”
Some comments we received:

Comment #1: MYTH. Get medical help w/ anti-venom.

Comment #2: This is one of the most ridiculous things I have ever heard. No one should take the opportunity to incapacitate themselves like this when they should immediately be seeking medical attention.

Comment #3: No. The only treatment for snake bites is anti-venom administered in a hospital under close medical supervision. Nothing else works. No cutting, no electric shock, no sucking, no tourniquet, no home remedy.

Comment #4: Don’t believe this stun gun thing, unless you want to die. Venom requires anti-venom.

  • Some folks need to do more research on a subject than just spout words. First of all identify the snake you are talking about. Maybe like RATTLER, which unless you are talking about a very young snake will try and SAVE its Venom instead of injecting. Giving information to the general public is dangerous unless you are an expert. And most of you folks on FACEBOOK are NOT experts, believe me. To those of you who are trying to learn in these finals days before TSHTF, study from reliable sources and forget FACEBOOK.
