The paper published in Eurosurveillance highlights the growing threat of mosquito-borne diseases in Europe - including dengue, chikungunya and West Nile virus infection - driven by climate and environmental change, international travel and the expanding range of disease-carrying mosquitoes. Although measures such as removing breeding sites, applying larvicides and insecticides, using personal protection and piloting sterile-insect techniques are available, their implementation is hindered by fragmented governance, limited evidence on cost-effectiveness and safety, differences in national regulations, environmental and health concerns, and increasing insecticide resistance. The authors call for sustained investment in surveillance and research, alongside locally adapted, evidence-based and integrated mosquito-control strategies coordinated across local, national and EU levels through a One Health approach involving public health, veterinary, environmental and urban-planning sectors.
