Scientists have issued a warning after two species of disease-carrying mosquitoes, including one responsible for the spread of dengue fever, were identified in the UK. Experts suggest their presence could expand due to climate change.
Research teams from the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) located Aedes aegypti, known as the Egyptian mosquito, and Aedes albopictus, or the Asian tiger mosquito, during surveillance for non-native species.
