We've spent October through April
herefor the last nine years. To date, I've been bitten twice by mosquitoes and once by what I assumed was a noseeum, but that's unverified. Maybe it's because we usually have a nice gentle breeze blowing through from the ocean five miles west. Of course, I wasn't bitten in the RGV either, but I attribute that to the wind -- wind so strong that it pushed me 1/10th of a mile without pedaling! We ended that stay four weeks early and made a beeline for Florida where we're been ever since. Bug bites? Heck, they happen anywhere in season -- just less here in IBE where the Imperial River is always moving water.
