The wet July followed by rising temperatures have created the perfect conditions for mosquitos, according to scientists from Wageningen University in the Telegraaf.

Researchers expect an ‘explosion of adult mosquitos’ over the next few days which could become a ‘plague’ in some places, the paper says.
They recommend people clear their gardens and balconies of stagnant water sources and cover rainwater barrels. Even blocked gutters can provide the perfect location for mosquitos to breed.
