Guess who has the most deadly sting?
Mosquitoes are the most deadly insects in the world
Many of us view mosquitoes as more of an annoyance than a threat, but the tiny insects are far the deadliest animals on earth.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that 725 000 people are killed by mosquito-born diseases each year.
A staggering 200 million people are at least temporarily incapacitated by malaria alone, of which 600 000 die.
Dengue fever, yellow fever and encephalitis are also deadly diseases carried by mosquitoes.
