wencel Posted February 23, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I've read everyone's recommendation to use bug spray while on the canopy tours. Is bug spray still necessary if I wear long pants? I'm thinking of donning yoga pants, which are fitted so there wouldn't be any leg openings for the bugs to access. I'm a little nervous about the bug situation as I was in the Caribbean in Oct and got bitten an average of 20x per day even though I doused myself with Off. The bites were so angry & nasty looking :eek: I was worried the airline staff would think I had some skin disease and not let me board the plane home!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtcheaptraveler Posted February 24, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 24, 2006 I did the canopy tour 2 weeks ago and wore shorts and a sleeveless top since it was quite warm and you get even warmer hiking between the zip line starting points. I used bug spray and had no problems being bitten. I did get a couple of bites while in the woods in Mazatlan getting ready to do Randi's horseback riding, but once on the beach there were no bugs.

tssace Posted February 24, 2006 #4 Share Posted February 24, 2006 We used Deep Wood's when we went last April - another lady had Skin so Soft and her party didn't get bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
