Če ugrizne

  • Ugriz umij in ohladi. Poišči zdravniško pomoč, če je bolečina močna ali se poškodovanec slabo počuti.
  • V Avstraliji vsak ugriz velikega črnega pajka obravnavaj kot ugriz lijakastega pajka: Imobilizacija s pritiskom: čvrsto ovij elastični povoj čez ugriz in nato navzgor po celem udu, ud imobiliziraj z opornico in poškodovanca drži popolnoma pri miru, dokler ne pride pomoč.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

  • Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
  • Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
  • Če te ugrizne: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti
