unfortunately Australia has 8 out of the 10 most poisonious snakes in the world. If you ever come here don't even think about picking up a snake unless you are in the tropical areas and even then be VERY careful because they are not all pythons. Where I live every single snake you see has extremely toxic venom and all can kill in a matter of minutes. The weird thing is though I don't mind snakes but I absoultely hate spiders and our spiders are very toxic too. Just don't touch any spiders or snakes in the land of Oz, you just might bite off more than you can chew!!!! The land of OZ HAS really sh*tty creepy crawly's. BE WARNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I killed a red back spider yesterday, sorry spider lovers but it was inside without an invitation. I love Australian surface spray, it's designed to kill all our spiders which can get HUGE (from the size of a tea saucer to a normal plate which are usually called huntsman's but they aren't poisonous even though they can be massive) it even kills cockroaches within 10 seconds, I kid you not.
