75 Percent Of US At Risk Of Invasion From Disease-Spreading Mosquitoes

A new study has revealed that 75 percent of the US may provide suitable conditions for disease-spreading mosquitoes, for at least some of the year. The findings are related to temperature, so global warming might increase chances of invasions from unwanted insects.

Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus are types of mosquito that carry deadly diseases like Zika, dengue, and yellow fever. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have warned that these mosquitoes could survive in three-quarters of mainland US states.
