(We would predict most of our Hot tub use will be after the sun goes down, post-golf rounds).
Hot tub was installed in November and cage was added 2 months later. I did not encounter any bug issues between November and January but that is the winter months. You should expect to have insect issues in the summer. Also a cage would keep the small lizards and frogs out of the area.
