Better they die than humans.
Save the gay mosquitos!
Humans are not exempt. Bats/birds/other insects eat mosquitos. Other things eat those things. Humans may be at the top of the food chain, but we are VERY dependent on what's below us to keep us alive.
We should rid the world of Prog Marxist Democrats first, and see if things get tolerable.
bring back ddt.
I’m not in favor of eliminating all mosquitoes. As other posters point out, mosquitoes are important to many other species. Put me down as a JIMBY (Just in My Back Yard).
I am of the opinion that one should treat the area where they reside and by NO MEANS tamper with Gods design of nature. Mosquito’s have their place within and serve a purpose. The arrogance of man is never ending and this would be just another baked up idea that our government grifters would pilfer and loot.
“Absolutely not. The food chain is an important part of life, and mosquitos are part of that.”
99% of the species that ever lived on this planet are extinct, and the remaining life adapts. Let’s add mosquitos to that extinction list.
There are 8 billion humans on the planet only because we live in an environment we have engineered to support us. The most ecologically destructive practice is agriculture, which purposefully destroys the native ecosystem to replace it with human-supporting food stocks. I flew once into Fargo on a beautifully clear day in early Fall. From 10,000 feet the world was a sea of wheat. The entire prairie ecosystem had been annihilated.
I would prefer that we don't forget our need for bio-engineering and instead allow irrational sentimentality to govern policy.
Chairman Mao messed around with this kind of thing and it didn’t go well.

ya if we learned anything from the fouchie debacle it is that just because you can do a thing doesnt mean you should.
Not a good time to ask me. I have bites all over. I’m one of those people that are just magnets for the things.
But not in that order please?
I understand that there is no specie dependent on the Black Fly.
Have at them!
Round these parts, I could do with a lot less midges and no see ums.
Yes. Get rid of fleas, ticks and mosquitoes and the world will do just fine.
Should we get rid of mosquitoes? That’s the debate AI is going to have about humans.
Bam, there it is. Knew it. Gates wants to end everyone and everything. He dreams of the butterfly effect.
Yes, just like we should rid the world of leftists.
Just like leftists, mosquitos survive only by sucking the lifeblood of the more productive in the world.
Don’t mosquitoes challenge the immune system of their targets and, presumably, strengthen them? Hate to find out the hard way that that’s true…
