Mosquito's in September?

[Raisinette]

Hello,

We'll be doing our first (southbound) Alaska cruise mid-September, and I'm wondering if mosquito's will be an issue?  We'll have 2 nights in Anchorage, then stops in Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan.  Should we bring repellant?

Thanks

That's funny you ask about mosquitos as I sit here putting cortisone  cream on my many mosquito bites. Have been up here 4 wks. and have never seen the bugs this bad. It could be because of the unusually warm weather. They aren't too bad in the populated areas  but elsewhere they are bad news. Just use more bug spray!

No, mosquitos should not be an issue in September.

Perfect - thanks for the info!
