We have been to Fuerteventura half a dozen times, Spring and Summer, and I don't think I have ever seen any.

Cockroaches are a different matter....

I'm home and I have 5 mozzy bites on my left leg 2 on the right..and my son was feasted upon all over..been going to Fuerteventura for years now and its the first time I've been bitten as badly..one or two bites over the years but the mozzies seem to be getting fiercer...I wonder if they are breeding with the midgies from Scotland? :rofl

If you go into the supermarket just along from the atlantica centre, you can buy a mozzie plug in for around €6

once got told to put a bowl of "Vinegar" near your bed on a night time as this deters them, never tried it as i though someone was pulling my leg :)

well i can now answer my own question on this one as we're now back from our hols :(
saw a few mossies in the evenings but not enough to be a problem. we stayed at the hotel suite atlantis who provide a plug-in in the rooms which i thought was good. must have worked because my daughter was the only one to get bitten and that was only once.
