Don't underestimate the mosquitos.
I just got over West Nile virus and encephalitis from the buggers. Darn near killed me. The only good thing from it is now I'm immune and I lost 30 pounds in the hospital.
I was told one out of 500 infected bites results in the virus, then one out of 150 with the virus get complications like meningitis, encephalitis, paralysis, amnesia, organ failure, blindness, coma etc.... It is the brain swelling that messes you up. Potentially permanently.
Its' no joke. A guy in New Jersey just died in early September. People that mean well start telling you the worst stories they ever heard about how fugged up people they knew or read about got from it. Thank God I just thought I'd get better after a while, I never realized how serious it was in the beginning.
Spray some bug juice on before you go out there!!
