Britain is receiving an increasing number of unusual insect visitors as warmer temperatures allow species such as big-eyed bugs and praying mantises to expand northward. Scientists say the climate crisis is altering habitats, breeding patterns, and migration routes, bringing creatures previously associated with warmer regions to UK shores. Some newcomers may enrich biodiversity, while others could compete with native species or affect agriculture. Researchers are monitoring these changes to understand how quickly ecosystems are shifting and the risks arrivals pose.
