    Hello. I suppose there are mosquitoes in Panama City but I have never heard of anyone getting Dengue Fever in any other places than the jungle areas and mountain areas. They do an excellent job of spraying for mosquitoes here, especially this time of year. I have lived here almost 6 years and have rarely even seen one and have never been bitten. Not like I did when I lived in Colorado. If you want to take extra precaution use some mosquito repellent. Expats here rarely use repellent as we don’t see many mosquitoes at all.
