Its venom is neurotoxic, which means it attacks the nerves, so it can cause severe pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and excessive sweating (diaphoresis). The lymph glands near the bite can also swell (regional lymphadenopathy).1

Bites are infrequent. The venom is strong, so any bite is serious.1

E etsang ha e tshohile?

It hisses loudly and flattens its forebody into a low S-shape to warn threats away. It bites only when provoked, for example when stepped on or prodded, and it hangs on to its victim if it bites.1
