It's exactly the same around Sydney. We don't have flying insects here that bite chunks out of you (like they have in Queensland).

We do have some potentially dangerous snakes and spiders around Sydney and the Blue Mountains, but you'll be lucky to see one. They're more afraid of us than we're of them.

By far the most annoying "wildlife" in Australia are the flies. But that's limited to summer and varies from year to year.
