Depends. We have some swampland on Mink so you will see Mosquitos there, but not in droves. Snorkeled under my dock a few years back while working to replace a power line and when I looked up at the underside of the dock I screamed. Seemed like a gigantic dock spider every few inches clinging to the underside of the dock. Think arachniphobia, the movie! I'm generally not afraid of spiders but that many just inches from my face -- yikes!

Our porch is screened. No worries.
