This is rather disconcerting.

You notice how whenever we introduce a critter into the wild, we end up wishing we had not most of the time.

Screw worm flies only breed once. They were eradicated by releasing lab-produced sterile male flies.

Years ago one of my uncles worked on a project that sterilized mosquitoes and released them into the wild producing no offspring. I suppose the mama mosquitoes were quite frustrated. :D

Isn’t the entire premise here ,”hetero normative”??

It assumes male and female mating.

What about the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender mosquitos? Why are their rights ignored?

I have a bad feeling about this project.

We may have the technology but we are not God.

This is currently being done to control a number pests, including the blowfly. It isn’t really that controversial.

Oxitec's modified mosquitoes, all male,

Are they manually checking every one of them? Mutations and other weird stuff happen in nature. No reason it couldn't happen here. If something did happen and we end up with a new type of mosquito that's worse then the one they were trying to get rid of, then what? More GMO mosquitos to fight the first ones?

Insanity. The moment they are released, natural selection takes over and soon overrides any human-engineered genetic modification. Sometimes I wonder if the human race deserves to be called “homo sapiens.” A better name would be “homo stultus.”

Now, when you get stung by a mosquito, your arm falls off!

Always wear pants. Nudist males beware of the modified mosquitoes.
