Heading for our third trip in the last year to the BVI October 13-23rd, and with all the talk of Zika was just wondering about everyone's experience with mosquitoes when moored/anchored. We don't recall any problem at all while on the boat in the evenings, but we're looking for more input.

Obviously wind has a lot to do with it; but assuming there's no wind, do mosquitoes travel over water for some distance to feast on us humans? And if so, I wonder what that distance might be? Should we moor as far from shore as possible to stay out of the danger zone? I hate putting on spray if we don't need to in the evenings while enjoying the sunset...

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Tom
