Hi, we're on the Gold Coast, and as yet have only seen cockroaches and some geckos near our flat! I have a 4 year old son, 3 year old daughter and 14 month old son, so am also worried, especially as we will be moving soon and will hopefully have a garden. We went to Australia Zoo a few weeks ago, and they put on a show, where they have the kids repeating after them things like if you see a snake, what do you do? Don't touch, stand still. My kids also watch the Wiggles Wiggly Safari DVD a lot, where the message not to touch animals is put across really well- may be worth a look. They've been here three months now, and the older ones seem to get the idea, look but don't touch. The baby is a different matter of course. Everything goes in his mouth, and all you can do is watch out, and check out where they are playing first.
