I will start the Camino Françès in June 1, is there a lot of mosquitos on the way, should i bring some anti-mosquitos spray?

There must've been some mosquitos on my walk but I don't remember having been bothered. Leave the spray at home and buy one on the way if necessary.

July-Aug 2014. I think I saw one the day after Roncevalles. And I squashed it. So you should be clear. Bigger issue is bedbugs (see other threads).

France, Spain and I suppose most of Europe are well known for not using insect screens. If there was a mosquito problem I suspect that would change.
