How Bad is the Bug Problem at Parrot Cay?
We are finalizing our trip plans for next March, and Parrot Cay seems to be the leading contender. The one thing that bothers me is reading all the comments about how bad the mosquito and noseeum problem is. I've read that they fog every morning and night and that controls it, but others say that doesn't help. Has anyone been there recently that can shed some light on this? Thanks.

If it makes you feel better, all of the Caribbean has that problem, it is the tropics. I'm sure Parrot Cay provides bug spray, or bring some with DEET. The best time to spray is evenings at sunset, or after a quick shower. (If there are any showers!) There are never mosquitos on the beach.

Thanks Blamona. We've been all over the Caribbean, and have been lucky never to have problems or be bothered by mosquitos or other bugs. But some of the reviews I read made it sound like there were swarms of them at Parrot Cay (which I read used to be called Mosquito Cay), some people saying they came home with hundreds of bites. I take all reviews I read with a grain of salt, but reading things like that does get you to thinking.
