Mosquitoes are not just annoying, they are the deadliest insect on the planet. “Over 1m people are killed by mosquito-borne diseases every year all over the world”.
In Spain, there are 63 species. Most of these are native, such as Culex pipiens (common mosquito), a species present throughout Europe. The number includes three invasive species that arrive from other parts of the world, transported by traveling people, in vehicles, or through plants or used tires. These 3 species are:
Aedes aegypti (yellow fever mosquito, native to Africa).
Aedes albopictus (tiger mosquito, native to Asia).
Aedes japonicus (established in Cantabria since 2018).
What diseases do mosquitoes transmit?
These mosquitoes are vectors of several arboviruses that can infect humans or other animals, and parasites like malaria.
Aedes aegypti and Ades albopictus can transmit yellow fever virus, dengue, chikungunya, and Zika. Culex pipiens and Aedes japonicus are vectors of the West Nile virus. Cases of these diseases can be imported-brought to Spain by a person infected in another country, or be locally transmitted cases.
