UK holidaymakers have been issued a warning about a potentially lethal disease after insects were discovered at two popular Spanish destinations. Tiger mosquitoes have been detected on the islands of Mallorca and Minorca, prompting authorities to deploy helicopters to disperse pesticides in an attempt to eradicate them.
Originally from Asia, these mosquitoes are now proliferating in Spain and can transmit diseases such as dengue fever. They feed throughout the day and can infect humans with diseases when they bite.
These aggressive mosquitoes can be easily distinguished from other species by their distinctive stripes. They are carriers of yellow fever and dengue, as well as Zika, which can lead to birth defects.

Their bites are more painful than those of European mosquitoes and can result in severe swelling, scarring, and occasionally infection.
According to the Mallorca Daily Bulletin, tiger mosquitoes are spreading across the Balearic Islands, with measures already taken in Palma, Mallorca. A region in neighbouring Minorca has issued a warning about the presence of these mosquitoes, urging people to report any sightings, reports the Express.
There is concern that changing climate conditions are facilitating the spread of these mosquitoes, as increased heat and humidity allow them to survive further north in Europe. Experts have cautioned that the Paris Olympics could see diseases spread by these mosquitoes.
