An invasive species of mosquito has been found in 13 countries in the EU, including France, Spain and Greece, with experts linking their discovery to a rise in dengue fever in Europe.
Climate change is creating favourable conditions for the tiger mosquito to spread, said the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC).
As far north as Paris, where the Olympic Games will take place at the end of July, authorities have been monitoring and trapping the insect.
The ECDC has warned international travel will further increase the risk of more European outbreaks.
The Asian tiger mosquito, aedes albopictus, which is thought to be the most invasive species of mosquito in the world, is now spreading across Europe from its southern European ‘base camp’.
We can eliminate mosquitoes that bite humans and there will still be plenty of related species left for birds and bats to eat.
