Happily living in northern Sweden until I have to migrate further north to avoid these fuckers. Regular mosquitos are bad enough here as it is during the summer.
Tiger mosquitos bite during the day as well. They are also quite good at hiding and finding a trace of shade where they will hide until you stop looking for it. Bites sometimes proper hurt too.
Tiger mosquitoes have been in the US since they hitched a ride in a tire from China in the 80’s, before algore invented the internet or global warming. The cold weather didn’t stop them from invading Michigan, new york, Pennsylvania, Vermont, new Hampshire…
Yes. Cold winters kill these mosquitos, and winters are not that cold anymore.

These ones can carry malaria and dengue. Climate change means tropical diseases move north too, and these mosquitos are their highway.
Yeah, we have them for a decade here in Dalmatia.
