I'm going to stop by REI and pickup some of this stuff before we head to Jamiaca:

Good lord, 98% DEET! This stuff better repel the higglers, as well as mosquitos.

I'm usually pretty lackadaisical with the application of bug spray and I usually get few bites but it's not a big deal to me. However, being down with flu-like symptoms for a few days can really put a damper on your vacation, so I'd rather be safe then sorry.
