That's good news. Looks like not everyone has seen lots of snakes near them. They all seem to be where there are long grasses and thick bushes. Would love to enjoy a nice winter. In here it's chilly winter most of the time and is not the nice ones. Thank you for your reply.

Wowwww crocodiles too omg. Where do you find them? I will avoid such places always. If I do see one I will run for my dear life as fast as I can [emoji23]

Wow it's good to know if we don't bother them or don't scream or try to get rid of them it's fine. So maybe I should just think of them as any other animals which I like such as squirrels or cats or dogs hehe [emoji16] I need to teach my kids about all these esp creepy crawlies.

yes i think that a great if the school does all that and it made me laugh that u could squat one if needed. I need to grow up to that confidence haha. Yes definitely going for all kinds of first aid course haha. Snake bites drowning snake phobia spiders chasing haha. its too exciting thinking of a new life but scary too :-)

Wow pythons too only seen them in zoos. I need to know how to identify so I don't get super worried whenever I spot one. Good to know you haven't heard of anyone who has been bitten by a snake. Thank you for your reply [emoji4]

Haha I am sure I will be ok. I will go for first aid course and buy all kinds of pest control spray or anything like it hehe. I am thinking to attend classes on how to identify and understand snakes. It might help me be a bit more confident [emoji3]

Wow only 3 snakes in 30 years that's a lot of relief. It's the media that scared me then haha. Thank you [emoji4]

My husband is an IT professional. Which places in South is good. I will have a look at it. Thank you for the insight. I am extremely scared of snakes eeww. I can't stand it hehe.

Yes very true all we want is somewhere nice and sunny. We seen the sun about 2 weeks ago for one day and very briefly haha. I grew up in India but after being here for about 15 years I got acclimatised to cold weather maybe I will turn back to hot weather again. How long does the hot humid days last over there? Is it only during summer? Also if we air-condition our house would that help? Thank you x

I can imagine moving to Brisbane from Scotland such a vast difference. We will be camping at Loch Ness in may. It is still very cold here and we were all worried about a snowfall call beast from the east during easter even calling it white easter but luckily it didn't happen in our area. We are getting fed up of the cold in here haha. Will need to consider coastal area in Brisbane as it sounds better. I don't like humid though don't know what to do about it. I bet you cant wait to feel some cold weather and me some warmth haha. Thank you for your reply x

Thank you so much and it did helped me a lot to understand better. Sounds like we need to look for properties near the coastal areas and I will bring my winter clothes too thank you for the advice. Need to do some research on kids school too. Too many things to sort out haha x

Haha I know I read too much and have even seen so much on YouTube about snakes on the other side of windshield of the car opposite to the driver haha. It will kill me if that happen to me [emoji23][emoji23] I think I will be getting loads of pest spray a lot. I even asked my husband whether snake bite vaccine is available haha x

Thank you so much. I was worried and confused earlier. My husband has high cholesterol, do you think that could be an issue?

Hello, we are thinking to move to Brisbane but some of my friends who lives in Sydney has been telling me that Brisbane is too hot. I live in England now and near Manchester which is mostly wet and cold all year round. I was wondering whether it would be a shock to us esp my 2 small kids who are 3 and 5. We wanted to be in sunny and warm place that's why we chose Brisbane but never visited before so we are just doing guessing game of the weather with help from Google regarding weather. Thank you all already [emoji4]

Hello nice people, any idea of how healthy or fit do we need to be to pass the health check? I am confused [emoji52]

I am sure I will be startled for a while when I get there with all the surprised visit from various spiders haha. Nice to know you do gardening and how to first check for any odd creatures before I start working on dense areas of the garden. And thank you for your reply [emoji4]

Thank you. I just googled it and checked the size and it's quite massive but knowing that it is harmless make me feel better. I will try to keep my cool when I encounter one for the first time [emoji4]

Yes I heard a lot about spiders and ants too. I hope I am bit ok with them unless I see a ginormous spider size of a plate coming down from anywhere. That will scare the hell out of me.

Thank you for the confidence. Yes we will try to avoid long grasses and bushes. I love gardening but will be careful not to have thick shrubs as I worry too much. Don't want any snakes saying hello to me [emoji16]

Hi all, we are looking forward to move to Brisbane and hopefully things goes to our favour. I am scared of creepy crawlies esp snakes. Are the snakes problem really bad in Brisbane and how are they viewed in other places. Are they everywhere? Also what can we do to snake proof our house, garden etc. Also I am thinking to go for a first aid course with more emphasis on snakebite. I have 2 small kids 5 yr old girl and 3yr old boy and they would love to play outdoors. My husband is British and doesn't seem to be scared of coming across snakes or maybe he is just ignorant of them hehe. I grew up in India and I know how dangerous they are. What do Australians do to protect their families? Thank you all already for stopping and replying to my concern [emoji4]
