The flights from Brazil get treated like any other flight.
The bug bombing of forested areas in populated areas has been going on for years, not only in Brazil but also in Asia and other tropical areas around the world. If they did not do this you would be eaten alive by bugs. I walked all over RIO and Sao Paulo, hung out at the beach and watched the sunsets, no flies, no moths and no mosquitos.
When you get there you will realize it's not as bad as the media portrays it to be. From what I could see there is no mosquito problem in urban areas.
