You may have to put them on a bit more often because you're gone swimming or you've had a shower or something, all those things.

But they are still by far the best.

Now, mosquitoes are a disaster.

They transmit a huge number of diseases.

Malaria, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis, dengue, chikungunya.

And some of these are coming into southern Europe as well over the past year, two, three, four years.

So we're now seeing cases of chikungunya and Zika and various ones in places like Greece and southern Italy and parts of France and Spain.

Now, are they going to move further north with the actual warming climate that we're facing?

Yeah, possibly so.

But at the moment, we're fortunate in Ireland that we don't have that many.

We have midges, obviously.

Yes, conditions aren't right.

They're two separate issues.

There are some mosquitoes in Ireland.

That's perfectly correct.

But very, very, very few.

Mosquitoes only live for about a 14-day under ideal circumstances.

In a colder climate like ours, they can't live that long.

They only live for five, six, seven, eight days.

So they will die off much more quickly if there's a cold spell.
