The tiger mosquito, which has been present in Canton Ticino since 2003, has crossed the Alps by means of transport. Since 2013 it is regularly found in the rest areas on the freeway, but since a few years it also appears in some urban areas in both Swiss German and Romandie. Below are some passages in the media covering the topic.
