    Default Plague of mosquitos carrying deadly diseases is headed for Britain, scientists warn

    Rising temperatures caused by climate change will make the damp British climate perfect for the disease-carrying insects

    Mosquitoes carrying serious diseases could become widespread across the UK in the next few decades as the climate warms, experts claim.

    Biting insects that transmit "vector-borne" infections once confined to equatorial regions have already invaded parts of southern and eastern Europe.

    Now a new study predicts it will not be long before the unwelcome visitors arrive in Britain, bringing with them tropical diseases such as dengue fever and chikungunya.

    The UK climate is already said to be suitable for mosquitoes carrying West Nile Virus, an infection that causes a flu-like illness which on rare occasions can prove fatal.
