I've seen one roach, and been there three times. I must admit, it was huge. But it's not like they're crawling all over the place in broad daylight.

In our 11 days on the island last week, we did use any bug spray and Sue got bite once, myself not at all. We've heard tell of bugs but no proof. We did see some water bugs (translation big, big roaches) but only late at night and typically running around outside on the walkways.

I've heard about mosquitos but never seen them. Nor roaches. But I'd take deet and maybe Avon SSS just in case. I had a bad case of tiny ants last time when I was negligent about putting my food stuffs in the fridge. Bonaire is not nearly as bad as , say, Mexico or Texas.
