Summer is a season full of life. You can lean on the deck chair in the courtyard, slowly swing the cattail leaf fan in your hand, and look at the ray of light rising from the sky, which is a quiet and leisurely scene. However, it should be noted that summer is also the season when snakes appear frequently.
When you are walking in the park or on the road in the community, a snake suddenly jumps out from the grass. This scene is not to mention how scary it is. And many people also find traces of snakes in residential areas, such as the previous ones. One day, a man was hit by a snake that fell from a tree while he was on his way, and was bitten on the head, causing his face to swell. Some people also found traces of the snake in the toilet.
So, why is summer the peak season for snakes, and how should we deal with snakes?
First of all, we all know that snakes are cold-blooded animals, and their body temperature will change according to changes in the outside temperature. When the temperature is below zero, snakes will enter their holes to hibernate, so snakes are rarely seen in winter. When the outside temperature reaches above 26°C, they will enter an active state, especially in areas with frequent rains and lush vegetation, where traces of them can often be seen.
Moreover, due to the persistent high temperature weather this year, the number of snake alarms in places such as Sichuan and Hangzhou in summer was significantly higher than last year. As of July, Hangzhou had handled more than 544 snake alarms. I know that last year there were only about 200 cases in the whole year. Moreover, with the continuous high temperature of 35°C, even snakes couldn't stand the heat and ran to shady places to escape the heat. Therefore, snakes appeared frequently.
Most snakes are non-venomous, but there are also many types of venomous snakes. For example, in Sichuan, there are more than 50 types of venomous snakes. If you encounter a snake, without knowing whether it is venomous or not, How should we respond?
Perhaps many people have heard that snakes are afraid of realgar , so as long as realgar powder is always available at home or on the person, they will be fine. However, in fact, this statement has been proven to be a misunderstanding. Even if realgar powder is sprinkled on the ground, most snakes will be fine. You will still crawl over as if nothing has happened. Only volatile and irritating alcohol may have some effect.
Moreover, although snakes will not actively attack humans, they are also in a very dangerous state when they sense danger or need to eat. If not handled properly, they may be bitten by them. Therefore, ordinary people may be bitten by them at home or in the wild. If you encounter a snake, do not handle it without authorization. The best way is to quickly avoid it and call the police for help in time.
In addition to these coping methods, you must also do preventive work on weekdays, because snakes will come to the house, largely because they need to eat, and the main source of food for snakes is rats, so if there are no rats in the house, then There is a high probability that the snake will not come easily. Of course, sewers are also one of the ways for snakes to enter the house. Many people find snakes in the bathroom, and many snakes hide in the toilet. Therefore, you should be careful about this when going to the toilet.
Generally speaking, snakes were regarded as beneficial insects in ancient times, because they can catch mice and have a relatively large impact on the ecological balance. However, you should also pay attention to precautions in life and avoid being bitten by snakes. Everyone also knows those snake repels. What about the method?
