A horsefly expert has revealed the best ways to avoid the insect delivering the most painful insect bite and how to know if you have been bitten.
John Horsley, Technical Officer at British Pest Control Association, has described the feeling and look of a horsefly bite and some ways you can repel the powerful insect that can cause "rabbit fever".
The expert dubbed the bite of a horsefly - appropriately named as it can pierce the skin of a horse - as one of the most painful you can get in the UK due to its "saw-like" mouth.
