Clusters of small white flies have been spotted around Nottinghamshire over the past few weeks. Their appearance has left many people wondering what they are and where they have come from.
The whitefly is a relative of the aphid and have been spotted on cars and coats. People have even been swallowing them or getting them in their eyes while out on walks.
Some people have mistaken these small flies for ash, blossom or even very early snowflakes. But what are they and why are there so many?
