please don't laugh..ok laugh but help me..
ok i just read under 'general info' about the bugs on the island ....of course i realize there has to be but i would love to MINIMIZE my chances of meeting up with them especially those big roaches and scorpions...

question??? we will be at SECRET HARBOUR and can stay on the 3rd floor with a terrace on the beach or on the bottom floor with patio where you can walk right out on the sand...seems in the pix like a lot of trees and greenery down there...do you think that the top floor will be less buggy???
anyone have a problem...?

in baja in mexico we always see scorpions especially in summer....
the best island for no bugs so far is BARBADOS i have no idea why but there are hardly ANY!!! must be those frogs that make noise in the night....

anyway..thanks for any tips..

OK don't kill me for bumping up this subject again! but i have been talking to a co-worker today who grew up in St. Croix and he says that the flying roaches are all over.....calling them mohogany birds......just what i needed to hear....lol!!!!
i am sure half of it was tall tale and half true but maybe just in the residential area he was in and maybe hotels have spraying on st t......
now my fun post is getting me paranoid!
