During the rainy season (June – November) mosquitoes make their presence known to anyone visiting the jungles of Belize. Long pants and bug spray are strongly recommended when walking the trails at Lower Dover. The Jungle Lodge area of the property does not have this problem because of our mosquito security patrol spearheaded by our old friend the dragonfly!
During the early mornings and evenings dragonflies can be seen floating throughout the manicured lawn and garden area getting fat on those buggars! Hundreds of dragonflies hovering and protecting your skin is an impressive sight. Eat on my friend, dragonfly, eat on.
