If you are bitten by a snake, stay calm and seek medical attention immediately. The only effective treatment for a snake bite is antivenom. Antivenom is a serum that contains antibodies that can neutralize the venom.

Here are some precautions you can take when hiking or camping in snake-prone regions to minimize the risk of snake encounters:
- Be aware of your surroundings. Snakes are often found in areas with tall grass, dense vegetation, and rocky areas. Be especially careful when walking or hiking in these areas.
- Wear sturdy shoes and long pants. This will help to protect your legs and feet from snake bites.
- Be careful when stepping over logs and rocks. Snakes may be hiding underneath.
- If you see a snake, do not approach it. Give it plenty of space and allow it to move on its own.
- Keep your campsite clean and free of debris. Snakes are attracted to areas where they can find food and shelter.
- Seal any cracks or holes in your tent or camper. This will help to prevent snakes from entering your shelter.
- If you have a pet, keep it on a leash. This will help to protect your pet from being bitten by a snake.
