As one would expect, snakes now very active. However, in Shell Cove especially, some snakes are coming up close to backyards and dog-runs so keep a sensible eye out. If you have a snake bite after hours, ARH Emergency Vets Wollongong, which is open & fully staffed each night from 6pm-8am, plus has vet staff on-site 24hrs, all-weekend and Public holidays, will have anti-venom and ventilators etc on-hand. https://arhvets.com.au/wollongong/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIqu_Dqoy27AIVwworCh0-HA17EAAYASAAEgJhcfD_BwE
