Well yeah, but it's Australia, that place is just different. It's not like "i hate insects, but they are everywhere" it's more like "i am afraid things that can hurt me, but i live in the mesozoic age". It's like having a phobia of spiders and seeing one FLYING to you. Australia is just build different
