Given the speed that biting midges spread across Iceland, this is potentially very concerning news ( https://www.icelandreview.com/news/iceland-marks-ten-years-o... ). I wonder if there will be any benefits for birds or other insect eating animals. Though the negative of having another disease vector will surely outweigh any benefits to Iceland.
