I spend a lot of time in Finnish Lapland (my wife's family has a house there). Mosquitos in Juky will be bonkers. For hiking you really need a facenet, long trousers (ideally very dense cotton weave) amd thick long sleeved shirts. The first time I went hiking there at the same time of year they were biting me through a synthetic baselayer!
Guess you can outrun them on a bike, but bring nets and stuff for camping. I'd still recommend the trip - amazing scenery and very little traffic. Plus some nice gravel roads in some places.
