I myself would not let them give me antivenin for a pigmy bite. Antibiotics and pain meds at the most for me. The hospitals here love to give it to everybody no matter how mild or dry the bite is. I am more worried about the side effects of it than the bite.
I have only been bitten once by a hot. A pigmy actually on the foot. It will give you an all new respect for instant pain. I was young and walking around barefoot in the woods. Lesson learned. The best thing to remember is stay calm and at least get monitored incase of a bad reaction. The most dangerous snake bite in the world is the one that just bit you.
