Iceland has discovered its first mosquitoes, raising questions about their arrival in a climate previously hostile to such insects. Climate change is being cited as a potential factor, though the identified species is not considered a significant health risk. The discussion highlights the growing concern over biting midges, which have been present in Iceland for about a decade. Additionally, there are references to a mosquito species that has adapted to live in the London underground, showcasing the adaptability of insects. Overall, while the presence of mosquitoes in Iceland is notable, it does not pose a major threat to human health.
