They're not mosquitoes, they're another species of small insects that don't bite you. Still annoying though.

Ireland here, never seen a mosquito. We've got midgies and cleggs though

Tiny bees

Those dont look like the mosquitoes I've seen... probably a different blood sucking bug.
ChunningTantum
Biting midges man, they scary
thefatrashpanda
Everyone knows Africa is the only place without mosquitos
SteveSteveSteve55
It's tough to tell these days, but I'm guessing this is fake news.

They do have biting midges, this is lake Mývatn - https://imgur.com/lgCsxEX

Bot posting. Ugh.
Theman098
the fuck did you think? that the little shits reach the border, only to be shot down by the icelandic laser defence network?
ElbowdeepinElmo
Iceland really doesn't have mosquitoes. They do have other fly-like insects that bite you though (which is probably what you see in the pic)
CrazyCatLord22
obviously robot mosquitos collecting your blood to make a clone army for the government

My guess those are flies. Looks like the location could be myvatn. Ridiculous amount of flies when I was there.
99popcorn
The first picture is not myvatn.

Looks like Seljalandsfoss.

Those are gnats.

mosquitos per human on iceland

You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?
ThePertinentSquirrel
Mývatn, the lake in the north of the island Literally translates to Midge Water/Lake. I assure you there are plenty of mosquito's in summer!

Who said there are no mosquitos?
gnarledhalo
It's true, they just have other insects that bite http://icelandreview.com/news/2013/06/27/no-mosquitoes-iceland-puzzles-scientists

As much a lie as the name itself.

I contacted my top Norseman on this issue, his response :

Mosquitoes or not.....your lives ain't gonna get easy either way .....

I moved from Holland (mosquito central) to North England 8 years ago and haven't seen a single one in all that time. Loving it!
Imtoooldforthisshit1
Because the north of England (north west specifically) is the best place on earth!! (I’m drunk)
buffalobagels
I got bitten by a mosquito in Scotland two days ago.
LittleMissZombiebait
Was it lost?
swenglishperson
when i go to my cabin in the north of sweden you can hear mosquitos swarming and it sounds like a distant jet engine powering up lol
LittleMissZombiebait
I do not envy you!
RigoryMorty
Northern Sweden here too, they are a fucking scourge this year. Like jesus fuck, they're better off biting each other, I have no blood left.
BCrabby
Las Vegas has no mosquitoes!! Love it!!
JoetheTrashPanda
I think we got some but they're not around where I live.
schwiftyPop
You're a filthy liar
Sahrelli
I'm from AZ, no mosquitos there. Unless you live at a lake
BCrabby
My Sil in Phoenix had tons
MrDirtyEars
Not true
BCrabby
Serious? I lived by Aliante and Centennial and never had any
MrDirtyEars
They're around. My friend works for the health dept. He catches and tests them for diseases.
Greatwood

BCrabby

As a correction to my last comment (thanks @joishine) it is correct that there are no mosquitos but instead many midges in Iceland. 1/2
MoonMouse
The lake that I was talking about is also translated to midgelake and not mosquito lakt like I stated before.
MoonMouse
I removed the old comment so that it would not mislead anyone

midge lake, we don't have mosquitios but midges who don't really bite, never been bitten by one and my work brings me to midge lake often
MoonMouse
Ahh I thought they were mosquito s when we were there. Nice area but we couldn't get out of the car at one point because of them
MoonMouse
How is midge then translated to Icelandic?

How can you tell that it's a bot?
ValFry
Asking for a friend: what are bots used for exactly? I don't see the point...
RigoryMorty
Same bot as https://imgur.com/user/emiliomuhammadnoeljoeymiles Will probably be used for spam when they have a few accounts who can PM.
notacobra
Sometimes they edit the post to include dodgy link, othertimes they farm points to send phishing pms.
BOSSMOPS
Getting fp, getting points, edit the post to link some shitty click bait or fishing sites or some shit
FistingWithJalapenoDoritoFingers
Phishing*
BOSSMOPS
Oh yep sorry! I'm pretty tired :D
xSoaringWyvern
Nah, it's all a ploy to advertise for fishing gear. It's a conspiracy man!
SailorDeathstar
Yo he might not be a bot..that could just be a word in Icelandic
CheckYourWifiFriend
Check the account. Most probably a bot.
DracoSicarius
No favorites, no comments, just created today and has already made it to FP. This is the very definition of a bot.
christinefromthebean
This is blowing my mind about bots, I don't know why i never thought about it ... I appreciate the bantering
BubbleTeaFox
Maybe he's a lurker that made an account to respond to a front page post about his country? I d'know, it's so specific for a bot.
DracoSicarius
Highly unlikely it's not a bot. It hasn't replied to any comments, not even this comment thread to say "hey I'm not a bot".
BubbleTeaFox
I suppose, but there also aren't any ads or links. I've seen a lot of complaints about bots, but what is it they're trying to accomplish?
