Yes LOTS!!! And some of them carry some pretty nasty diseases - I would not consider Boca as a place to live just because of that reason!!!

Yes and they love to hang out at Bagel Joints.

All of the diseases from Broward County are carried by the W. Boca mosquitoes too due to the proximity, like TB and Typhoid Fever.

Seriously though, they spray and treat the canals/etc for mosquitoes out there just like the rest of the tri county area. There aren't many mosquitoes anywhere in South FL for that reason, although you certainly would expect there to be!

The mosquitoes in Boca are much larger due to the amount of collagen they suck in a day, a scientific study reported.
