I have never heard of a tarantula biting anyone - have you? I think the movies have done injustice to a lot of critters. They choose things they can make look scary - not that they are dangerous. On land and in the sea most critters want to get away from us and do unless we corner them.
Where ever there is a lot of foot traffic you are not likely to find anything dangerous. I do have to saw though that I was shocked when I was bitten on the toe by a Brown Recluse Spider. Thank goodness I knew what it was and how to treat it.
The most annoying insects to me are the fire ants. The mosquitoes come and go with the weather.
Snakes are our friends they keep the rodent population down.
