Hi, anyone have any info on these little buggers? Care shets, availability, venom strength? I have been looking around and cant find anything on them on the internet.Jeff Corwin says they can easily kill a person, but other sorces say they are only mildly venomous. Thanks

I don't think any one has ever died from one of the lesser adder bites,but still be careful.I know that SAVP polyvalent has been used in Bitis caudalis with some success, but they bit was more like a A.contortrix bite....uncomfort and swelling.....not life threatening.
