Am I being paranoid?

Anonymous
Punta Cana, DR safe in late June with kids? Youngest is five years old. We are booked at a resort for 4 nights. Youngest child has some immune system issues. I am worried that one sighting of a mosquito is going to ruin my vacation. Big family celebration event is at stake.

I think it's dangerous because it'll be June in a humid climate. Don't you care about people's hair, OP? That's the major concern I see.

Seriously, this is a concern for your child's pediatrician, not us.

Of course I consulted with docs! They're like "meh, it should be fine...." But still worried...

Take Deet 8 (which is supposedly the best) and stay away from bushes. Stay in the water, and you should be fine.

I never once got bitten at a resort in the DR. I think they control mosquitos pretty well. But take spray with you anyway cause it will be crazy expensive there.
