Newcomer Mosquitoes in Buenos Aires during the summer?

[mistery]

Hi everyone! We're almost ready to book our tickets to Buenos Aires for a trip from December to March, but then I remembered the issue with mosquitoes. Is it really that bad during this time? Should we reconsider our travel dates?

Yes, there are mosquitoes, but just wear repellent and you'll be fine. It's not as bad as in many other places in the world, and it's definitely not a reason to avoid traveling here. You just need to be prepared and keep some repellent in your purse or backpack.

I live surrounded by nature, and yes, there are mosquitoes. You just get used to them. Honestly, when I hear the panic coming from Buenos Aires (where I’ve also lived), I can’t help but laugh. People have become incredibly fragile. I understand the concern about dengue, but you just need to take precautions.

I hate hate hate mosquitos. Generally mosquitos wouldn't be bad unless there is a Dengue outbreak!
