Introduction
Snakes…Indiana Jones’ worst nightmare. But snakes
aren’t just limited to scary movies and underground caves.
They are found in all 50 states except for Alaska.
Fortunately, of the many types of snakes in North America,
only about 10% are venomous.
While non-poisonous
snakes may bite,
causing pain and
possible infection, the
bites of poisonous
snakes are extremely
painful and some are
even fatal.
Snakebites often occur when a person walks too close to,
or even steps on, a snake. If a snake isn’t moving, or in the
case of a rattlesnake, isn’t rattling, they can be difficult to
see or hear. Usually, snakes will leave you alone if you
leave them alone.
Remember, all snakes, including poisonous snakes are
concerned with the basic needs of finding food, shelter and
self-preservation. And chances are, if you come across a
snake, it’s looking for one of these things.
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Have we ever
seen poisonous
snakes at our
landfill?
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
Although venomous snakes use their venom to secure
food, they also use it for self-defense. If they feel
threatened, they may bite.
According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, about
8,000 people a year receive venomous snakebites in the
United States, and only 9 to 15 victims (0.2%) die. In fact
more people die from wasp and bee stings than from
snakebites. And, most of the people who died from
snakebites received no medical treatment or first aid.
But despite the low death rate, venomous snakes must be
considered dangerous because even non-fatal bites can
cause severe pain and long-lasting tissue damage.
Many landfills are in rural areas that have been previously
undeveloped. As a result, landfill employees may be at risk
for snakebites for several reasons. Let’s look at some
examples.
Workers on the litter
crew are most likely to
encounter
poisonous
snakes as they walk
throughout the landfill
picking up blown litter.
The risk increases when
working in brush and tall
grass, especially when
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
there is also evidence of mice, rats, squirrels or gophers in
the area.
In these areas, snakes may be anyplace, but very often will
be found beneath a large piece of cardboard or Styrofoam.
When working on the litter crew, never step where you
can’t see and don’t pick up large pieces of litter with bare
hands. If you get too close the snake may feel threatened
and may try to bite you.
Mechanics and others
who
work
on
machines are also at
risk. As part of their
job, they must crawl
under
machines,
often reaching into
dark,
inaccessible
areas. Unfortunately,
snakes may also
crawl
under
machines, into dark, secluded areas seeking shade in the
daytime or warmth at night.
Employees can also be at risk when picking litter, mowing
grass and weeds, cleaning junk piles (white goods, trash
bins, etc.), surveying, inspecting the landfill, cleaning
ditches and culverts, monitoring gas or groundwater

What are some
other ways we
might come
into contact
with poisonous
snakes?
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
monitoring wells, stripping topsoil, or grinding brush or
wood waste.
Here is a common example:
Joe was a landfill
surveyor for the
Hidden Oaks Landfill.
One hot summer day,
he was staking the
alignment for a new
haul road. The area
was overgrown with
tall grass and brush.
It was a hot day and Joe was moving quickly so he could
get inside for his lunch break. As he hurried to set the final
stake, he saw a blur of movement near his left foot …as if
he had stepped on a stick. And then an immediate
stabbing, burning pain. He had stepped on a rattlesnake
and it reacted by striking him in the calf. Luckily for Joe, he
was able to get medical assistance quickly. The whole
incident could have been avoided, if he had been paying
better attention to where he was walking.
Types of Poisonous Snakes in the United States
There are four species of poisonous snakes commonly
found in the United States. The coral snake is found in
southern states as far west as Texas. The copperhead is
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
found in most of the eastern and mid-western states. The
cottonmouth moccasin occupies waterways and wetlands
throughout the south as far west as Texas. And
rattlesnakes are the most widely dispersed specie, with
different varieties that can be found throughout most of the
US.
Coral Snake
 Length: 13-22 inches long
 Coloring: Black with red and
bright thin yellow stripes.
Often, the coral snake gets
confused
with
the
nonpoisonous scarlet and Coral Snake
scarlet king snake. However,
on the scarlet snakes, the red and yellow stripes never
touch; on the coral snake, they do. Remember the
saying “red on yellow kill a fellow."
 Found in the Southwest U.S.
Copperhead
 Length: 22 to 36 inches long
 Coloring:
Light
brown
alternating with dark brown,
almost pinkish tint.
 Distinguishing Marks: Pit Copperhead
between their nostrils and the

eyes. Often confused with young cottonmouths, which
are also poisonous.
 Found in the Southeast and Central states.
Cotton Mouth (Water Moccasin)
 Length: 20-48 inches
 Coloring: Adults are dark, almost black. Young are
brown with reddish brown bands.
 Distinguishing Marks: Pits between the nostrils and
the eyes. They live around water. They get their
name, cottonmouth, because when threatened, they
open their mouth and a whitish interior can be seen.
 Found in the Southeast and Central states.
Rattlesnakes
 Length: Usually 2 to 5 feet
long
 Coloring: Dark brown to
black, even shades of
green.
 Distinguishing
Marks: Diamondback Rattlesnake
Have oval, square or
diamond shaped blotches on their backs and a rattle.
 Found primarily in the Southwestern United States,
but almost every state has at least one variety of
rattlesnake.

These descriptions and ranges are guidelines only.
Remember that there can be lots of variation in size and
color and location.
Nonpoisonous snakes include: bull snake, milk snake,
garter snake, water snake, racers, king snake, rat snake,
hognose, pine, gopher, flathead, and mud snake.
Dealing with Poisonous Snakes
If you encounter a snake, it’s good to know if it is
poisonous or not.
Your
local
bookstore could
provide you with a
snake guidebook.
Get one that has
color pictures to
help
you
to
identify
snakes
that are common
to your area.
You may also want to post photos of snakes that are
common to your region on a bulletin board. That way, all
landfill employees can know what to look out for.

Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
How to Avoid Snakebites
Most snakebites can be avoided if you keep your eyes and
ears open at all times, especially when walking in tall grass
or brush. Snakes are often found near piles of debris that
provide shelter and where rats, mice, or other sources of
food may live.
Never pick up litter,
boards, debris or other
items with your bare
hands. If you must reach
into an area, use a tool or
branch to probe the area
first.
What are
other ways we
can avoid
snakebites?
If you have to walk
through tall grass or brush, wear leather boots and snakeproof leggings. Always watch where you are walking.
Some bites, such as those inflicted when snakes are
accidentally stepped on, are nearly impossible to prevent.
But following a few precautions can lower your risk of being
bitten.
Leave snakes alone. Many people are bitten when they try
to kill a snake or get a closer look at it. If you suddenly
encounter a snake, walk around it and give it plenty of
room. A snake may be able to strike up ½ of its length.
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
Symptoms of Snakebites
If you or a co-worker is bitten by a snake, look at the bite
closely. Bites from a nonpoisonous snake will show rows of
teeth. Bites from a poisonous snake may have rows of
teeth showing, but will also have one or more puncture
marks caused by fang penetration.
Watch the person closely for these symptoms within
minutes up to an hour after the bite:
 Swelling at the site of the bite
 Shock
 Excitement
 Hysteria
 Panic
 Spontaneous bleeding from the nose
 Blood in the urine
 Pain at the site of the bite
These signs usually appear 1.5 to 2 hours after the bite:
 Breathing difficulty
 Paralysis
 Weakness
 Twitching
 Numbness
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
Deaths from snakebites are rare. More than one-half of the
snakebite victims have little or no poisoning, and only
about one-quarter develop serious systemic poisoning.
How to Treat Snakebites
If you are bitten, immediately move away from the snake to
avoid being bitten again.
If you, a co-worker, or customer is bitten by a poisonous
snake, you should:
 Reassure the victim and keep him still.
 Remove watches, rings, bracelets, or other
constricting items.
 Clean the bite area.
 Maintain an airway (especially if bitten near the face or
neck) and be prepared to administer mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation or CPR.
 Use a constricting band (a tourniquet) between the
wound and the heart.
 Remove the poison as soon as possible by using a
mechanical suction device or by squeezing.
 Get the victim to a hospital as soon as possible.
 Do not delay.
Never:
 Give the victim alcoholic beverages or tobacco
products.
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
 Give morphine or other central nervous system
depressors.
 Put your hands on your face or eyes after touching the
victim or the wound. Venom can cause blindness.
 Make any deep cuts at the bite site.
Remember, the most
important thing is to get the
victim to a clinic or hospital
as soon as possible.
Not all snakes are
poisonous. In fact, most
are not. And, while it’s a
good idea in general to
simply avoid snakes, you
should never panic if you
see one. If you do, you
could end up hurting yourself in your attempt to get away.
Consider this example:
One afternoon, Jim was working alone, picking up litter in
an area of high grass and weeds. To help pass the time,
he listened to music as he worked. The volume was turned
up and Jim was tuned out. As he bent down to pick up a
large piece of cardboard with his hand – he’d forgotten to
When it comes to landfill operations …We Wrote the Book
www.blueridgeservices.com
Safety is not a plan …it’s an attitude
bring the grabber he normally used - his mind was miles
away, lost in the music.
As he lifted the cardboard, he saw movement and as his
mind snapped back to reality, he screamed, “SNAKE.”
In a wild panic, Jim turned and ran down the hill, oblivious
to the brush, rocks and potential for breaking his leg, his
only thought was, “I gotta get away.”
In his panic to escape a harmless snake, Jim put himself at
a much greater risk. He could have broken his leg. He
could have stepped on a poisonous snake. If you
encounter a snake, just avoid it …don’t freak out.

Weekly Tailgate Update – No. 2
Preventing Snakebites
Most snakes will not bite except as a defense mechanism. If you pay attention while
you are working, and are careful to give snakes plenty of room, you can reduce your
risk.
Here are some tips to follow:
1. When walking in tall grass, always wear high boots and long pants.
2. If you have to reach into areas you can’t see into (machine underbelly, behind
equipment tires, under rocks or to pick up litter), probe the area with a stick first.
And always wear leather gloves.
3. Watch for snakes when you are in areas of shade and darkness. Snakes may be
found beneath trees or equipment in order to stay cool during the heat of day.
What else can you do to prevent snakebites?

Types of Poisonous Snakes
In the United States, there are four species of poisonous snakes. It’s important that you
know what these snakes look like, so that you can avoid them.
1. Coral snakes are found in southern states and are black with alternating red and
thin yellow stripes.
2. Rattlesnakes are 2-5 feet long, have brown to black coloring, and have a rattle
that they may shake when they feel threatened.
3. Copperheads are 2-3 feet long and have alternating light and dark brown stripes.
4. Cottonmouths are 2-4 feet long, have dark, almost black coloring, and a distinct
white mouth.
