Bug Protection

Mosquitoes, sand flies and no-see-ums are all part of Caribbean life but you don’t necessarily want them in your home!

We offer various types of insect screening either ready fitted to the doors and windows or retrospectively applied, as custom made screens. There are many designs and suppliers around; we can advise you which ones we have found to work successfully in the Virgin Islands.

An alternative protection to insect screens is an exterior bug misting system designed to keep the biting insects away from both your house and external areas such as patios, decks and pools.

Bug Defence  is a perimeter misting system which keeps the bugs away at the times you are around. Using only organic protection solutions, these systems repel the bugs from the protected areas leaving you free to enjoy the outdoor space.

Totally safe, and emitting a light pleasant scent we have found these systems to be effective in the Virgin Islands. They are especially useful for rental properties, where visitors can be deterred if badly bitten during their holiday stay.
