No Mosquitos

Since Iceland is located on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, it sits directly on the tectonic plates between North America and Eurasia. These plates are always moving around, meaning spaces fill up with magma, which eventually cause volcanoes to erupt. With 130 volcanoes total in Iceland, 30 of which are active, this could be very concerning.
