The Spanish holiday hotspot of Ibiza has issued a warning to holidaymakers about a "moderate" risk of dengue fever this summer.
The local government is stepping up efforts to track and control the activity of the infected mosquitoes that spread the illness. Six German tourists were infected between May and November last year, reports BirminghamLive.
The Spanish Ministry of Health says the mosquitos responsible for spreading dengue are present throughout the area of the Spanish Mediterranean and the Balearic Islands - which include Majorca, Palma and Ibiza - and other locations in the country.
