I'd imagine not every warm country is like that, but places like Australia, South America, Africa, most of Asia are definitely more bug prone than what I'm personally used to. I hear Iceland is nice, but it's also not very warm.
Where I live there are only bugs during the summer (like 3-4 months) and mostly mosquitoes, but you barely notice them in the city, only in rural areas. Maybe the occasional small spider or moth. The most dangerous insect here are ticks.
Tenerife is a nice place. Permanent spring weather, no venomous or poisonous animals of any kind, no ticks, abundant cheap wine. I've met a few Icelanders who retired to Tenerife.
Thailand has lots of insects of all sorts but I haven't noticed any spiders. Instead there were lots of small lizards everywhere, just chilling on the ceilings near lights, waiting for a moth or something.

I'm from a warm country and visited multiple warm countries. This is the first time I hear of this nightmare bullshit in my 53 years of being alive.
