Rattlesnakes are common and particularly quiet, so please be alert.
They will bite you if you step on them. In case of rattlesnake bite remain calm, and find someone who can drive a vehicle. Do not attempt first aid such as snakebite kits, constriction tourniquets, or ice pack. The latest information we have claims that doing nothing other than getting to a hospital is the best treatment. Do not kill a snake even if it bites you.
