Its venom is highly cytotoxic, which means it damages cells. The venom is produced in very small amounts. Bite symptoms usually include mild to intense pain, local swelling with occasional blistering, and necrosis (death of tissue) and swollen lymph nodes near the bite. Dry throat and nausea may appear in the early stages.1

Bites are common in some parts of Africa. It is the third most common cause of serious snakebites in South Africa, after the Mozambique spitting cobra and the puff adder. Snake handlers are often bitten, because the snake can bite while being held by its neck. No deaths have been recorded, but the bite is serious.1

  • Any bite from this snake needs medical treatment as soon as possible. The bite is serious and treatment will need to be provided by medical staff.1
