Are mosquitoes a problem at Tall Timber?
A. Depending of the year, we can have mosquitoes, especially early in the season. While we do fog the grounds for mosquitoes when they are bad, they can travel several miles to reach you. Fortunately the species common here favors the cool hours of the early morning and evening, and do not bite during the heat of the day or at night. The best protection is to wear long pants and long sleeve shirts during these times, and protect exposed areas with a good repellant. We recommend that you avoid spray cans with younger children because of the danger of getting spray in eyes, breathing vapors, and the temptation to spray each other. (A rub-on lotion type is better.) There will be replent available for sale at camp.
