Texas Health Bulletin reports 20 to 30 percent of snakebite victims receive no venom as many snakes avoid venom or exhaust their supply. Texas records nearly 100 bites yearly with six deaths in five years and none in the last year. Experts note most bites come from nonpoisonous snakes and advise cooling the wound with ice or a cold drink to slow venom effects.
