Lol, you just sorta get used to it really....I was a typical 'pom' before i came over here; **** scared of a house spider & glad there's virtually no snakes in the uk.

Now, things are a bit different, you're aware that dangerous things are around, but just have to learn to just live with 'em.

The big spiders are pretty harmless. The most common dangerous little ones are redbacks, which to be honest are so common i could go and find one around the outside of the house right now if i tried. You just keep the young kids away from them.
As far as snakes are concerned, they're probably a bit worse, but i've only seen a real deadly one 3 times & 2 of them were roadkill.
Basically the real deadly animals live out bush normally well away from inhabited areas.

There is the ocean tho.....i try & stay outta that a fair bit!!!

Nice. Sounds like a great trip.

btw...i recommend taking your own ping pong balls to Bangkok. Much safer.
 
Bangkok, I bet your bringing a few diseases back with you as well! :wink:

And NO, I don't want them either!
