[QUOTE="Suzie Q, post: 773230, member: 14334"] The snake bandage is only to help you to get to Hospital. Always seek medical assistance. It is a longer than normal bandage. We were taught not to tourniquet any more. You start at the bite - go down the leg and then up past the bite to the top of the leg. Firm but not tourniquet. If you look at first aid they tell you to start at the bite and go up. But that is because most bandages are not long enough and by the time you have started at the bite and gone down, you have run out of bandage to go up. I figure it is best to have one in each tractor and one down at the bore. Probably best to have one in the house and one in the cars as well. Anywhere that they can be kept safe and dry, and you know where to find them in an emergency. [/QUOTE]
