Its venom contains a postsynaptic neurotoxin, which attacks the nerves, and a cytotoxin, which destroys cells. Its bite causes severe destruction of the tissue around the wound. Venom that gets into the eyes can cause impaired vision or blindness. Its venom is about as toxic as that of the Mojave rattlesnake.1
