Are There Mosquitoes in Bali?
The amount of mosquitoes depends on the time of year and location. There are more mosquitoes in the rainy season and more inland than on the coast. Use mosquito nets, fans, or screened windows to minimize the annoyance of mosquitoes in the home.
Mosquitos are one of the most common insects and probably the most dangerous, as they can carry diseases such as dengue fever, malaria, zika, or Japanese encephalitis. Use insect repellent with DEET, cover legs and arms with long clothing, and make use of either mosquito coils or plug-ins (available at grocery stores) to keep mosquitoes away.
