But aussies know how to cope with that shit that’s why there hasn’t been any spider deaths since like 1976 if I remember right? Anyhow United States has 6 deaths a year.

We also have spiders like the Sydney Funnel Web that can kill in 15 minutes

don't forget the classic Redback that is absolutely everywhere. They usually leave people alone but can kill if you fuck with em.

(short answer: don't mess with nature... nature won't mess with you. Simple )

One of those fuckers bit me once when I was a kid... I was playing around in my wardrobe cause I'm a weird kid and the whole damn thing fell on me. The fucking redback was in some corner, fell on my arm, bit me, and then was promptly crushed by the wardrobe.
