Are you kidding. No one recommends cutting into any bite, and tying off with a tourniquet. This WILL cause spread of the venom, and cause infection, secondary wounds and a host of other potentially fatal consequences. DO NOT cut into any sting or bite, EVER, unless you have specialized training to do so!
