You guys have got it sweet in the states as far as bugs n snakes go try mowing a lawn thats in a King brown snakes territory( the thing will actually chase you bitting the mower). We have at least one snake to every 3000sft around here and I have been bitten on two separate occasions by brown snakes and have four toes on my right foot because of a bit. Now I hear you guys going on about little bee and wasp stings like its the end of the world.
So here is a little Aussie bush trick for the next time youz get stung but Some of youz arn't going to like this. The best thing to stop the pain of any bite is to pi*s on it. Yep thats right Urine holds a natural antiseptic so next time you get stung all you need to do is get the jewels out and think about pinnacle's right foot.


If your not happy with your work you may as well stay in bed

:sleeping:

I could just see someone getting stung in the eye and trying to pee on it................

 

[pinnacle]

Then you would go on your hand and rub it on your eye.

The pain vs your urine on you and going home for a shower

 

[LAWNGODFATHER]

What about the middle of your back?

Hey George, can you pee on my back, a wasp just stung me?

Does this work for snake bites too?

What about the tip of your tongue?

 

[pinnacle]

Again go on your hand and rub it on your back.

and as far as snakes go I would forget the "Golden ointment" and get to hospital with a good anti venom. Be more worried about death than pain I think.

 

[LAWNGODFATHER]

It is true that pee will help, so will aloa.

Snake bites, last time I was bit, I don't remember making it back to the truck, and waking up in the ICU.

 

[pinnacle]

Aloe vera actually holds no antiseptic values. I know this because my wife is a botanist

 

[mower_babe]

eeeewwwwwww!!!:blush:

 

[LAWNGODFATHER]

OK the stuff I got is Aloa Vera spray gel with Lidocaine, ghee I wonder what's doing the numbing.......

The Mrs said is was Aloa, must of missed the Lidocaine part...LOL

 

[pinnacle]

Yeh mate your a bit of a smart --- arn't you.
1 I said botanicaly Aloevera holds no antiseptic values and if you can find Aleo in the ground with lidocain you'll be up for a nobel prize
2 If you had actually tryed what I am talking about you would agree that its far better than your bloody aleo spray thats why Aboriginals in my country have been doing this over thousands of years mate.

 

[LAWNGODFATHER]

I can be mate.......

Now seriously, did you urinate on your foot?

 

[bobbygedd]

i been tryin to get a golden shower from the wife for years, she wont cooperate. but now, all i need is a wasps nest, and im in, thanks mate

 

[pinnacle]

Within 2 mins of my foot being bitten I was sweating mess. And could not see anything whitnin 10min from what I have been told my toes were turning into a horific ulseration and buy the time I got to the hospital is had 1 1/2 feet in the grave. The Australian KIng Brown Has one of the most toxic venoms of any snake in the world. So to answer your qestion no. As I said in my other reply
and as far as snakes go I would forget the "Golden ointment" and get to hospital with a good anti venom. Be more worried about death than pain I think.

 

[LAWNGODFATHER]

I've been bitten 2 times by poisonous snakes, I know your pain.......

Com'on you know you were going to get some wise cracks with the urination thing.

Bobby ROTFLMAO............ You go boy.

 

[Bluesteel]

Yeah, you guys got all the dangerous critters down under. That Brown Snake is probably the most agressive of all. Don't forget to tell your stories about the Funnelweb Spiders. Surely you have some (I know, don't call you Shirley).

 

[pinnacle]

The Funnel webs are more of a south east coast thing here so I'am lucky enough not to have any stories but an olde mate of mine in Sydney was bitten and he is not with us any more.

God bless you Paul,family and all the people at Green Corner Maintenance

 

[Rustic Goat]

Listen Pinnacle, I'm not about to unzip for a puny little sting, cause sure as I do, one of those King Brown critters is gonna take aim.

Seriously now, I've seen documentaries and heard of numerous events like you describe about that snake. Why isn't there a real serious eradication program going on?
Gives me the willies thinkin' about trying to mow around such a thing. I'd have to have some steel tub of a mower with a shotgun turret, or a two man mower, one riding shotgun.
I know my prices just went up.
More power to ya, and fewer reptiles.

 

[pinnacle]

Its a catch22 with the snakes here. The reason there is not a snake cull or eradication program is all to do with "Ecological sustainablity" you get rid of the browns and you'll have a problem with the red belly blacks and so on. Where not that silly down under!

 

[Bluesteel]

All that and strict idoitic gun laws to boot!!!
