Just in the summer. Upper peninsula mosquitoes can give Florida mosquitoes run for their money, but if you're staying in the lower peninsula, you should be safe from the kind that carry away children.

I'm convinced U.P. mosquitos make up for the shorter season by going way harder than their southern cousins.

Lower peninsula didn't have much in the way of hard freezes this winter. Should be an exciting tally of humans carried away by giant mosquitoes by the end of the season!

Can confirm, went camping up there last summer and the little bastards gave no shits about DEET or campfire smoke.

No. And less every year as it gets hotter.

But to answer your question: anyone who doesn't like Ron DeSantis (Meatball Ron) is welcome here.
