Currently, I do not own an anti-venom kit because it is not necessary where I live. We do not have any type of dangerous animals here on the islands that would require us to own one. However, when I worked in a few countries that did have dangerous animals that would harm you if bitten I would make sure I had one with me at all time. Especially if I had to travel to a place that had these animals that could bite me and I would need the kit to save my life.
