I lived and traveled all around central florida, and don't remember ever really seeing a mosquito much less getting bit by one. The spray and chemicals they put in the gray water work wonders.
In the Midwest, those suckers eat you alive. No body of water or pool in sight, but summer nights you wouldn't go out without bathing in Off.

The unspoiled Everglades had tons of mosquitos. Before they built Disney World that was a hell of a place to get a flat tire on the turnpike. Day or night it was just as bad as the Everglades, and if you didn't have loads of repellent more mosquitos would be circling for a landing spot than there was room for on any bare skin. Most likely almost all of the tonnage that was applied by all parties, of the most effective pesticides available, were dispersed in the area in the decades since. With the much larger human population today still using ordinary toxic stuff widely on their homes and lawns, maybe this helps make it easier to use non-toxic pest control within the tourist attractions.
