Recent scientific studies indicate a significant decrease in mosquito populations across Iceland. Researchers attribute this to rising average temperatures and altered rainfall patterns. Data collected over the past decade demonstrates a noticeable reduction in the prevalence of various mosquito species, particularly in coastal and inland areas. While the exact mechanisms are still being investigated, the shift in mosquito distribution patterns is being observed. The Icelandic government has implemented localized control measures to mitigate potential impacts, focusing on vector management strategies.
