Tiger and Egyptian mosquitoes, carriers of dangerous diseases, have been found in the UK for the first time since 2019, raising public health concerns.
Disease-carrying mosquitoes, including Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti, have been detected in the UK, with the tiger mosquito found at a Kent motorway service station and the Egyptian mosquito identified near Heathrow Airport.
These findings, part of ongoing surveillance by the UK Health Security Agency, mark the first detections since 2019 and raise concerns about the potential spread of diseases like dengue, chikungunya, and Zika.
Rising temperatures may enable these tropical species to establish in the UK, prompting calls for enhanced monitoring and preventive measures to reduce public health risks.
