Tiger mosquitos bite during the day as well. They are also quite good at hiding and finding a trace of shade where they will hide until you stop looking for it. Bites sometimes proper hurt too.

These ones can carry malaria and dengue. Climate change means tropical diseases move north too, and these mosquitos are their highway.

Yeah, we have them for a decade here in Dalmatia.
