We were recently approached by Georgia Power to conduct a snake safety class for their employees. According to Georgia Powers Senior Safety Advisor, there recently were two sepearte incidents where Georgia Power employees were almost bitten by venomous snakes in the field. During this two day training class, we shared correct first aid procedures for snake envenomations as well as identification of many of Georgia's snakes. Having live venomous snakes on hand that are all native to Georgia assisted us in demonstrating the true demeanor of many of these snakes as well as dispelling many of the common myths associated with them. After each class, numerous people told us that they now have a totally new outlook and new found respect for Georgia's snakes. Mission accomplished!
