My manager at the Cosmosphere hated Florida. He’s like, “My nephew lives there. I feel so sorry for him.” And listed off a bunch of problems like most lighting strikes in the US, alligators, etc.[quote=“jlw, post:1, topic:87492”]
“It’s been more than five decades since the screwworm infested Florida, and I’ve grown up hearing the horror stories from the last occurrence.”

For weird ass creepy stuff, Florida is the Australia of US.
As an Australian I resent this comment.
I quote:
Now several agencies are fighting back using the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), which works by releasing a large number of sterile screwworms into the wild with the intent of decreasing the insect population.
