I feel bad for being terrified of all the spiders and moths and other insects here, since Britain is pretty much the safest place in the world as far as dangerous insects/bugs/creepy crawlies goes.
We get honey bees, wasps and hornets which aren't lethal, and there's like 1 species of biting spider, a few scorpions which you'll almost definitely never meet, and 4 species of snake (only 1 venomous and almost always non-lethal), and then it's just like moths and flies and such.
The rest of the world has actual monsters.
