What a Snake Bite Kit Is For
A snake bite kit helps you act quickly after a suspected snake bite by supporting the pressure-immobilisation technique (PIT) while emergency help is on the way. The SURVIVAL Snake Bite Kit includes pressure-immobilisation bandages for this purpose. A kit is not a treatment or a substitute for medical care; it simply keeps key bandaging items together. Follow your first aid training, keep the person still and call 000 immediately. For general Australian guidance, see healthdirect snake-bites advice.
Who Should Carry One
Consider keeping a snake bite kit with your outdoor first aid gear if you are among hikers, farmers, campers, remote workers, bush travellers or anyone who keeps emergency supplies in utes, caravans, sheds or worksites. It is especially useful where mobile coverage, road access or medical help may be delayed.

What is in the SURVIVAL Snake Bite Kit?
It is a SURVIVAL brand snake bite kit sold by Mediband and includes pressure-immobilisation bandages. Exact contents can vary by pack or version, so check the product packaging and listing for the current contents before relying on it.
How does pressure-immobilisation work?
The pressure-immobilisation technique involves firm bandaging and keeping the affected limb still while ambulance care is on the way. Use it only as taught in first aid training or current instructions, and call 000 immediately after any suspected snake bite.
What is the shelf life of a snake bite kit?
Check the pack and any dates, seals or condition notes supplied with your specific kit. Replace bandages or components that are damaged, wet, contaminated, missing or no longer suitable for use.
Does a snake bite kit replace first aid training?
No. A kit helps keep essential items together, but it does not replace first aid training, emergency instructions or medical care. If a bite is suspected, call 000 and follow the operator’s directions.
Where should I keep a snake bite kit?
Keep it somewhere easy to reach, such as with your hiking gear, camping kit, farm first aid supplies, ute, caravan or workplace emergency kit. Make sure others know where it is and check it before trips.
Should I call 000 first after a snake bite?
Yes. For any suspected snake bite in Australia, call 000 immediately. Keep the person as still as possible, apply first aid as trained and wait for emergency help.
