A few years ago I was in an area which was truck sprayed with permethrins for mosquitoes. The literature from the company that did the spraying claimed that the droplet size of the spray was such that it would target mosquitoes but leave bigger insects virtually unharmed. According to this literature, permethrins don't directly kill mosquitoes, but they cause the mosquitoes' legs to come off so they can't land and suck blood, and so they starve to death. Permethrins are also supposedly harmless to mammals in the amounts used for mosquito control.
