Mosquitoes are a common nuisance in Guyana, including at the El Dorado Resort. The tropical climate and abundant water sources provide the perfect breeding grounds for these pesky insects. Mosquitoes are not only bothersome but also pose a significant health risk due to the spread of mosquito-borne diseases.

In Guyana, mosquito-borne diseases such as malaria, dengue fever, and chikungunya are a concern for both locals and tourists. These diseases can have serious consequences if not treated promptly. The El Dorado Resort takes measures to control the mosquito population on its premises to ensure the safety and well-being of its guests.

Despite efforts to control mosquitoes, it is essential for visitors to take precautions such as using insect repellent, wearing long sleeves and pants, and sleeping under mosquito nets. By being proactive and vigilant, individuals can reduce their risk of being bitten by mosquitoes and contracting a mosquito-borne illness.
