Copperhead snakes are poisonous, Here is what to do...

1. Place a tourniquet between the bite and the heart. Loosen it every 15 minutes.

2. Get victim to doctor immediately for an antivenin shot.

3. If you are in an isolated area where no doctor is available, give the shot to yourself.

Keep the victim as still as possible.

Moving around spreads the poison through the body faster Have the victim lie down quietly.

Do NOT give stimulants (Coffee, whiskey, any alcoholic drink.) They also spread the poison faster.

Get medical help as quickly as you can.

If there is no phone to call for help, carry the victim to the nearest phone or doctor.
