This looks like a great application of GMO.

Mosquitoes are not food, so there is little concern with poisoning the food supply or with a mono-crop of mosquitoes causing a mosquito shortage. (Unless you believe an abundance of mosquitoes is critical to the ecosystem.)

And this technology replaces insecticides. I am far more bothered by a government crony getting $ billions to force-medicate me with their patented insecticides.

The main risk is that something goes wrong and we get a super strain of Killer Mosquitoes.

There are other concerns, like mosquitoes such as this being consumed by bats (who are vital pollinators) and affecting the bats’ health in some way. That would affect the food supply.

[Theoria]

Of course they are food. That is the point. They serve their role in the food chain to further along other species that benefit the desired outcome of the life cycle. They have also served to kill off millions of humans which is also part of that cycle. Nature abhors a vacuum, some other participant will fill that role in killing off persons, or other organisms.
