Things to be aware of in Florida:
Ft Myers Beach (Estero Island) is without a doubt a beautiful island. Yet there are several things that most visitors are not familiar with. Although rare, there are potential concerns while vacationing here, and it is wise to be familiar with them.
Florida “Critters” – Florida is well known for its natural beauty. Although some of the plants may be tempting, please do not pick them, some can be toxic to the touch. Also the animal life is interesting. Please instruct children not to touch frogs, snakes, lizards, etc. They can be dangerous. If you happen to find a “critter” in you unit, please call the front office. We do spray frequently, but sometimes they still manage to get inside. If this happens, call the Office as soon as possible.
Alligators – Because we are located in a sub-tropical climate area, alligators also enjoy this kind of climate. In general, they will retreat from humans. It is recommended that you do not approach them too closely for they are very fast on land and in the water. More importantly, never feed the alligators.
Snakes – There are snakes to be seen at times in this warm climate area. Although there are a number of varieties, if you see a snake – stay away!!!!!! If you are bitten, pay attention to the snake’s marking so that the species can be identified.
Sting Rays – Between the months of May and October, Sting Rays frequently visit our warm beaches. They like to stay close to the shoreline in the loose sand where they can bury themselves. While in the water do the “shuffle” with your feet. To do this, drag your feet along the bottom, stirring up the sand. If you happen to be stung, you will need immediate medical attention.
Jellyfish – They float through the water by riding the waves and currents. There is a possibility that you may never see the jellyfish that has stung you. If you feel a burning feeling and see a red welt on your body, seek medical attention immediately.
No-See-Ums – Many people don’t know what a no see um looks like because of its tiny size, but if one bites, it’s hard to miss. The insect is a bloodsucker many times smaller than a mosquito, but with a bite inversely more painful. The sting causes a large welt that can irritate the skin for several days, causing severe itching. It is tiny enough to pass through window screens, making it a nuisance to people and pets.
The scientific name for the no see um is Ceratopogonidae, but it has accumulated many common names. These include the sand flea, sand fly, biting midge and punkie or punky. Common to beaches, wetlands, creek and lakebeds, the insect purportedly stays within 350 feet (107 meters) of its breeding ground. Therefore, if people find themselves under attack at a camping site, on a picnic, or at the beach, moving a short distance can provide relief.
Suntan Lotions – We are blessed with beautiful sunshine all year long. Use of suntan lotion is a “must” to protect you from the strong rays that can damage your skin. Some visitors using lotion before going to the beach discover that they are allergic to the lotion – not the sun, if in doubt, consult a physician.
Drugs & Skin – People taking certain drugs who go into the sun may experience a photo allergic or photo toxic reaction to their skin. Here’s a list of some of the drugs that can cause a reaction when in the sun – Estrogen, Progesterone, Orinase, D iabinase, Diur il, Esidrix, Ore tic, Hydromox, Librium, Compazine, Phen egram, Quinid ine, Tofranil, Sparine, Stela Zine, Temeril, Thorazine, Tri lafon, Triavil, Et rafon, Vesprin, Benadryl, Sulfa, Griseofulin, Aureomycin, Terramycin, De clomycin, Small Pox Vaccine, and Imuran. If a medicine that you are taking is not listed, please check your prescription or consult your physician.
