So as someone who's planning on going to St Barts in late November this year, should I be concerned? Or will I be more-or-less safe as long as I'm taking proper precautions (good bug spray)? I'm glad to see promising trends, although am also wondering if those will reverse in the rainy season.
I'd never even heard of mosquito racquets - something I need to look into I guess.
Good bug spray with lots of DEET for yourself and spray your villa when you go out at night especially the bathroom where it's humid. The supermarkets sell Baygon which is a good bug spray for the villa.
