I didn't see one mosquito when I was there in July and we were at the campground.

They're making it available for CMs as well. WDW's pest control program is extremely effective in general, but it's still a nice gesture.

I spent nearly two weeks there, and didn't see a single mosquito, there were flies EVERYWHERE though, something I have never seen before.

Great news! This saves us bringing it from the UK and worrying about aerosols in the luggague.

They drained the small swamp ponds at POR apparently due to this mosquito issue. I'm trying to get more info.

Who else but Disney would "present" INSECT REPELLENT like this?

That's awesome! In EPCOT, shoud it be next to Living with the Land?
Too bad HISTK playground is closed. That would have been a great place for it in DHS.

No mention of DTD or City Walk. Wonder why?

I sorta half expect some barker with a boater hat and a garter on his sleeve to step up to the table for an invigorating sermon on "A magical elixir that is guaranteed to cure your ills including headaches, bellyaches, scurvy and mosquito bites!"

ETA: I swear I hadn't seen the dude in the hat, long sleeved shirt & vest when I posted the above! Can't tell if he's sporting an arm garter though.

Merged the Disney bug spray threads.

It's in Dtd and the entrance of the water parks as well.

Anyone know if they offering it at the hotels as well? We arrive at POR tomorrow, and especially with there apparently having been an issue there, I'd love to get some when we arrive. If not, I'll pack it as I originally intended
