I hate cockroaches because I was traumatized by my mission, but there are so many lizards around that I haven't seen more than 2 or 3 since I moved here 6 years ago. The lizards keep the roaches in check.
There are very few poisonous snakes.
There are gators everywhere including my backyard but they take the big ones out and the little ones are cute.
Love bugs are annoying but that is one week a year.
