Spiders & snakes is one reason I wont travel outside my country. Relatives head of to Aussie, no way man to many spiders over there!
The only poisonous spider we have is the Whitetail which came from Australia and the black widow. Very rare to see a black widow they hang out mostly in sand dunes but the whitetail is everywhere during summer, their bites are not fatal but you can lose a limb to gangrene if you do not get it treated. Rots your fresh
We have no snakes, scorpions or any other creepy crawly, though one creature which is freaky looking but doesn't seem to scare me like a spider does is the Weta. Harmless slow creatures.
