GirlHappy Posted July 13, 2004 #1 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Going on Empress of the Seas to Bermuda 7/24/04. I was wondering if I would need to bring bug spray. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish1c Posted July 13, 2004 #2 Share Posted July 13, 2004 We didn't need bug spray on the ship but brought some just in case for excursions. I didn't really notice any bugs & we did not use it in the Eastern Caribbean in March but I was happy to have it w/ us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzn buckeye Posted July 14, 2004 #4 Share Posted July 14, 2004 We are going to Belize. Will we be able to take bug spray aboard the plane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetMarie Posted July 14, 2004 #5 Share Posted July 14, 2004 That's a good question. I, too, was wondering about the pressure in the cans and bringing it onboard. But then again, I take my hairspray... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudmaster Posted July 14, 2004 #6 Share Posted July 14, 2004 you can take bug spray on the plane. I have never seen much in the way of bugs in the Caribbean, but then I have never been into any of the forests either. I usually stay pretty close to the ports and the beaches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bUU Posted July 14, 2004 #7 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Anyone know the snake situation in the Southern Caribbean? Do we need to worry about snake bites if we're going on one of the hiking excursions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudmaster Posted July 14, 2004 #8 Share Posted July 14, 2004 That's a good question. We are planning on going on a hike in Belize combined with cave tubing. I might have to change my mind if there are going to be poisonous snakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mammallama Posted July 14, 2004 #9 Share Posted July 14, 2004 In the caribbean I would be more concerned about sun poisoning than snake poisonong! LOL Seriously though, I detest bugs and biting insects of any kind. We've been to the So. Caribbean twice and have never had bug trouble, even when we went on the Rain Forest excursion in San Juan, and believe me, I was looking. I think the islands tend to always have an ocean breeze that keeps alot of the bugs away. Not sure about Belize, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just4kixx Posted July 14, 2004 #10 Share Posted July 14, 2004 We could have really used some bugspray on our cruise to the Bahamas 3 summers ago. Since then, we always bring it along! There were some type of sand fleas or something under our picnic table where the ship was serving its beach bar-b-que. May have been an isolated situation, but better safe than sorry :) A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
