Iceland mosquito discovery : For most people across the world, mosquitoes are a part of life. They buzz around on warm evenings, leave itchy bites behind, and seem to appear almost everywhere. Iceland, however, has long been known as one of the few places where mosquitoes had never been recorded.
That is no longer the case. The Icelandic Institute of Natural History has confirmed the country's first recorded mosquito finding after three mosquitoes were discovered in Kiðafell, Kjós, during mid-October, as per a report. While the discovery does not mean Iceland is suddenly facing a mosquito problem, it marks a significant first for the island nation.
