Anyone gone in late Sept....do I need bug spray??

I haven't gone before in Sept and was curious what the bugs where like. Anyone know.

Thanks

We've gone many times in Sept and have never taken bug spray. The Love Bugs are sometimes still out, but they don't appear to bite and are just bothersome. I've heard that if you're going to be in dense woods places like Fort Wilderness, you might want to take spray, but we have never needed it....just take lots of sunscreen and extra T shirts as Sept is still really hot and humid!

We've never taken bug spray either. I've never noticed it to be too bad and we've stayed in Fort Wilderness in September.

The love bugs are too funny though. My son asked me why there were so many "two-headed" bugs around.



Enjoy September. It can be very warm and very rainy but the crowds are nice and low. Have fun!!

Just trying to prepare my packing list and I didn't know if I would need it or not.

Thanks again.

Hi, we went the last week in Sept last year. We were fine on Disney property. However, we visited relatives in Clermont, just north of Orlando. I've never, ever seen so many misquitos in my whole life. I was freaking out for everyone to get in the car before they all got in with us!

We ususally go in Sept and never needed bug spray *except* when we stayed at Port Orleans. On the boat ride from DTD home every night, we got eaten alive by mosquitos. Well, I did. My husband is one of those people mosquitos don't like, apparently.

Otherwise, though, I don't think I've ever been bitten at WDW at all.
