The tiger mosquito (Aedes albopictus) is a small insect known for its black and white striped color resembling that of a tiger, from which it takes its name. Originally from Asia, this species is now widespread in many parts of the world, thanks also to its ability to adapt to various environments.

Although it may seem like a simple mosquito, the tiger mosquito is a vector of dangerous diseases. It can transmit disease-causing pathogens such as Zika virus, dengue, chikungunya, and yellow fever. The bites of this mosquito can be annoying and itchy, but the real danger lies in the possibility of contracting one of these diseases if the insect is infected.

The tiger mosquito is active above all during the day and prefers humid areas rich in vegetation. Its eggs can also survive in small amounts of standing water, such as in small containers or pools, making it a particularly adaptable and difficult to control mosquito.

Despite its fearsome appearance and role as a vector of disease, the tiger mosquito is also a fascinating animal in many ways. Its ability to adapt to different environments and its resistance are studied by scientists to better understand its behavior and develop effective control strategies.
