Big orange crab spiders here are weird but nothing compared to what Florida has.
The ants here are.........adoreable.
They look all mean but have zero bite.
Mosquitos here are pretty anemic as well if you can find them.
No roaches or rats either.

Fortunately, the gators keep the water moccasin population down so there aren't many bundles in the spring.

And they finally got Spike --> the 15-foot 2-inch buzzer that had been eating the dogs in the neighborhood around here:

I’ve gotten fire ants in my shorts squatting in the yard before in South Georgia it was a get naked and jump in the fishpond quickly it’s like they all got up in my shorts and bit at the same time. I’ve had to get them off my dogs too. Fire ants and armadillos were two things we could never really get rid of, only control a little.

Fire ants really do all bite at once. They climb up on their opponent, and when sufficient have arrived, a pheromone is released and it is game on.

MySonTheDoctor pointed out the triple threat: The little bastages bite you painfully with their poweful mandibles so they can hold on to stab venom into you with their abdominal stinger. But that all -- Their waste products are in the venom.

So the little Brazilian-imported bastages bite a bleeding, painful hole in your skin that will take days to heal, and the inject you with venom, and take a schit in the venom.

And unlike decent critters like honeybees, these bastages can bite, sting/shit in it many times over by moving and striking again.

There were orange groves where I grew up. I used to ride my horse through them (with permission, of course).
Banana Spiders love orange groves. Big ol' web spanning the rows of trees, them-there spideys hanging right smack in the middle of it, lookin' at ya' like "'Sup?"

Yep. Those little fkers leave a tiny little sore that lasts for days. I got one on my ankle right now.
