We have too many but fortunately, not many species are poisonous. We do have copperhead snakes and the occasional brown recluse spider but other than that, most things are harmless. I live outside of Pittsburgh, PA. About 30 miles north.
boooooo - crappy governments suck! I spend a lot of time near the ace basin in South Carolina. Great wetland animals there too. Once canoed past many gators on nests. Not the wisest thing to do! I've only "been" to Florida once and that was while taking a ferry from Georgia to Cumberland Island. haa
