There has been a “significant” spike in the number of people seeking advice for insect bites, the NHS has said, with people looking for help every seven seconds at a peak.
There were some 261,364 visits to the insect bites and stings page on NHS.uk in June, almost triple the number in June 2022.
NHS England, which runs the website, said there was a particular jump in searches between June 12 and June 18.
