Just wondering are there many mozzies about on the island? Just these little critters can smell my blood a mile off!! :(

Cheers. Wishing all a good week-end.

Hiya Fiona, I've been to PDC for about the last 7-8 years, been various times of the year, March, June, October and never been bitten at all (touch wood). So, hopefully you'll be fine

Try using Avon skin so soft, the mozzies hate it!

use aftersun with insect repellent in it, Asda own brand works well.

Hiya, add some citronella oil to your aftersun, Boots and Holland & Barrett sell it. Mozzies hate it... cheaper than buying a separate mozzie repellant. I tried Skin so Soft, but it didnt work for me. :(

In your own accomodation, don't have unscreened doors or windows open when you have lights on. We live here, and that works well. Of course, outside, or in public areas, you can't do that so we always use Jungle Formula after sunset (and before dawn if you're an early riser!).
