Caspan Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 There should be an icon for caches that show weather it is in a mosquito area or not a mosquito area. Some are out in the open and have no mosquitos were some are deep in a bush where you can't even sign the log book without getting eatin. This would help prep people if they should bring spray or long sleve shirts. Also with the west nile virus it would help people with small children to stay away from those caches if tey are west nile aware. Just my 2 cents seems like we have icons for everything else later all Link to comment

+Markwell Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Too bad no one's ever suggested it, offered a solution, or offered a working solution and icon. Link to comment
+ChileHead Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 It would make more sense to have an icon for an area without mosquitos! Link to comment

You should always bring some mosquitoes with you, just in case. Sort of like the people who bring a cache to put down so they never have to log a DNF. You're never disappointed. Link to comment
+grey_wolf & momcat Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 All caches in Florida have mosquitos. We carry spray and the headnets to go over our hats. Link to comment
