The World Health Organisation (WHO) has declared mosquitoes as one of the deadliest insects<\/em> in the world, mostly due to the ability to fly, carry, and spread diseases from one person to another. As per their official website, mosquitoes cause millions of deaths every year. Let\u2019s take a look at some facts and figures [according to WHO] defining how mosquitoes have caused fatalities over the past few years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adding on, there are several types of mosquitoes in the world, and while some of their species are completely harmless, others can carry more than one disease. As such, malaria \u2013 a widespread disease carried by mosquitoes \u2013 results in thousands of deaths every year globally. It can easily be transmitted and spread from humans to humans via a mosquito\u2019s bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the global count of dengue has tripled over the past 30 years. Many countries around the world continue to report their first outbreak, which means it is still on earth even after several vaccines and top-class treatments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As per the official website of WHO, chikungunya, dengue, yellow fever, and zika are some of the deadliest diseases that can hurt a person\u2019s immune system and cause fatalities. These are all the diseases transmitted to humans by the Aedes aegypti<\/em> \u2013 a fatal type of mosquito. Not to mention, more than half of the world\u2019s population dwells in areas where this mosquito species is still alive and causing several diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This kind of mosquito can be easily recognised by the white markings on its legs and a marking [in the form of a lyre] on the external area of its thorax. Take a look at the image below for reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
