    Year deer hair the look on his face when he injected himself I was like what what and he then held up his thumb

    I thought it was all over when I slipped in a pile of deadfall in forestry and my lower torso landed on a sharp broken off branch. I laid there frozen for about 5 or 10 seconds with the sharp branch sticking up burnt into my vision thinking oh f@#$! Repeatedly then moved a bit and did a pushup, oh no pain must be in shock, got up and yeah... branch was so rotten it turned to dust under me. But large israeli bandage is now in the pack as Ill take that as fair warning!

    Have one in the car bag but not in my tramping one, bandana with some celox on it and a bit of ducttape. It's going to get infected but hey least I keep a bit more of my blood, I'm rather partial to it

    Good for cuts on the fingers and hands on yourself too Id say, the skin around a fresh wound is numb for a while.

    I did have and will replace a neoprene bootie for the dogs paw also.

    Not a bad option in areas with high numbers of wasps or if travelling with people who have allergies.

    Cheaper than an epi pen and 3x the dose.
    Should be available at most chemists
