I have only experienced mosquitoes at Heron executive golf course at dusk.

Neighborhoods vary, but I have lived her for six years and have yet to have a mosquito bite in spite of nighttime walks or bike rides.

Avon Skin So Soft works as a repellant
Used that fishing in Scotland in Midge season, and those little blighters are a curse. Kept them away. (Mostly!) Another repellant is Brewers Yeast Tablets. 2-3 a day and after a couple of weeks you're good to go. |

I live on a lake and have no problems. Don't allow water to collect in your plant pot basins or put out a bird bath with standing water and you should be fine. Sumter County does mosquito spraying at night. Been here 20 years and no problems, even when out at dusk.

We've lived here 7 years and I have never seen a truck spraying. Up early every morning and stay up late a lot of nights. |

No problems here, I have yet to be bitten by a mosquito in the Villages.

I'm highly susceptible to mosquitos so I wear a wrist band that protects me from bites. That said, the # of mosquitos after dark are significant so that special treatment of your property might be in order. We've not taken this step as yet. Welcome to St Catherine's and a great new life! Joan Pate'

Thoughts + I do agree that the mosquitos seemed to be attracted to some much more than others (e.g. my daughter and my "girl friend"). + If I keep moving, I seem to be able to successfully evade the bugs. + I am surprised that more Villages residents don't fret spraying (but understand the incredibly effective effect it has in making evenings so pleasant). Are You Ready For This - Sit Down & Fasten Your Seatbelt It dawned on me, long ago (I grew up in Louisiana; also own in Maryland [now]), that my every exhalation seemed to be <the lure> for mosquitos. I was reminded of this in 2019/2020, here in TV. I would go to the squares and sit and listen to the music. That was in 2019 and toward the beginning of 2020. Then it all changed - It just stopped! Wearing a mask seemed to completely thwart the mosquitos' advance. I could be sitting "directly beside" other people (who were not wearing masks) These other people might be waving their arms about and grousing about being attacked. Not I; I felt as though I was in a protected bubble. Go figure! BTW, I am quite serious. I think the mask, by stifling my exhalation, removed the mosquitos attraction. |
