A system (12) for repelling mosquitoes near a spa (11) (referred to herein as a "Zika Mist System" or "ZMS") includes a string of misting devices (14-23) interconnected in fluid communication for mounting on a spa tub structure in order to produce an insect-repelling, spa-water mist over the spa from chemically treated spa water taken from the spa. The ZMS includes a misting pump for delivering pressurized spa water from an outlet on the misting pump (40A) to the string of misting devices via an outlet line (42A) component of the ZMS; it also includes an input line (41A) for coupling an inlet of the misting pump in fluid communications with a water-holding portion of the spa, e.g., preferably doing so via a drain assembly on the spa. A mosquito-repelling spa includes a spa tub structure on which is mounted such a ZMS.
