I may live in a desert but I'm no stranger to bugs. There are horse flies, mosquitoes, deer flies, horse flies, ticks, red ants, scorpions, black widows, yellow jackets, hornets, bees, gnats, etc. It's not bug free out here. Also, we have diamondback rattlers that are prolific at lower elevations. I'm just wondering about the opportunities for the hunting. Look up the pepsis wasp. Those are out here, too. Thank goodness those aren't aggressive. Worst sting in the insect world darn near, so far as pain goes. Some nut even gave them all a rating after letting them sting him. It's good reading.
