A deadly venom!
All rattlesnakes have venom and should be avoided. However the venom of the Mojave Green rattlesnake is especially toxic as it is a neurotoxin. Neurotoxins invade the body's systems in a highly efficient, rapid manner, causing massive respiratory damage.
The venom of the Mojave can cause severe respiratory arrest, seizures and fainting's. Many underrate the severity of the wound as it does not look as serious as most rattlesnake bites. This venom packs a terrible wallop and should be treated ASAP immediately!
The range of the Mojave Green includes Kern County, San Bernardino and L.A. County (in California) plus parts of Mexico, Utah, Arizona and Southern Nevada. This species thrives in low desert and high desert areas, with dry creek beds, mesquite and cactus.
leaving your garage door part way open is asking for trouble in the high desert.
could you image that in your bed when you wake up
