Corns are rats. i.e. red rats. lol.

I have been bitten by many snakes over the years including eastern garters with no effects. However one time I had a rather intense reaction from an eastern garter snake bite. A very large angry female (gravid) that bit me over a dozen times in quick succession which probably accounted for the reaction.. more bites by a snake large enough to hit me with the rear teeth equals more saliva making it into my system. Nice itchy burning sensation and lots of bleeding (anticoagulant properties) .. lasted around 10 - 15 min.
