| How?

| Mice run away from humans, unless they're pets.
All I said was that they were more danger to humans in the UK than
spiders are :-)Bizarre.

In the UK and except for other humans, yes.

| I walk about the garden with bare feet and have never been stung.
I have bumblebees that nest in the lawn, and sometimes visit flowers
that are invisible under the grass. Your eyesight must be very
exceptional - are you, perhaps, allergic to kryptonite? :-)

| Not VERY rare, perhaps more rare.

I believe that most of the venison eaten (let alone sold) in the UK is
now farmed, and the majority of the rest is from a small number of
large landholdings. Essentially none comes from the roe and muntjac
in the smaller woodlands of the south and midlands, where the problems
are.
