Make sure you have enough bug spray, I did find though the longer I was in JA the less they bothered me, just like the ticks. (We lived in country so lots in the fields!)
Rup used to say that I no longer had "farrin" blood so dem used to mi now!
They are bad at dusk and mornings, and worse the more into country you are.

Oh, and roaches are BIG also! Lizards also all over the place, so if things like that scare you, just be prepared.

Lots and lots of mosquito spray. Coils are good too. We used them all over the place. Can't do much about the flies. Ticks fall from the trees all around you. I must've seen thousands. Never had even one attach itself to me. Never saw any roaches. Lizards are everywhere and harmless. Saw a few little mice. Jomo thought they were adorable. I just screamed and ran. Hated when those things toyed with me while he was at work.
