Unfortunately we don't have the technology to *just* kill of these itchy disease vectors without trashing the environment. When we do, they're gone faster than Japanese wolves.
>B-bbut muh food source
Most creatures eat more than just mosquitoes. They'll live or die trying.
>You can't just genocide an organism because it's inconvenient!
We can and have. Smallpox went out like a b***h.
I live in Finland. From my point of view, it happened this summer already. Saw very few mosquitos during the whole summer. Usually this place swarms with them. My parents from 40km away reported the same.

I have a buddy that did sone research at a university in Canada where they were trying to wipe out some of the local mosquitoes, specifically the species that carried west nile virus and malaria.
They fed them this shit that makes their offspring infertile so that way they have a chance to spread it around to other populations.
Apparently the species being targeted only take up 10% max of any given species' food, so the environment will be able to cope with it, with the mosquito species that don't carry diseases gradually replacing them
I fully support it
>Humans encounter inconvenient thing
>eliminate it
>the world becomes a worse place due to unforseen consequences
Like clockwork
Piece of shit creatures but I think my hide is thick so they don't bite me, except the feet if I don't have my boots on.
I want an anime waifu who has a long stripey leg which points up like this
>all this call for mosquitos to be exterminated
>realize that if I have a stable mosquito population, I can ruin TRILLIONS of dollars of mosquito removal by just releasing them a few years after the program ends
Christ, I could really do it too. It wouldn't cost more than like 50 bux. I wish I had some kind of supervillain demands, but I don't, I'll probably just release them for the laughs.
>needs to drink blood to lay its eggs
Who the frick designed this shit? I hate parasites so much it's unreal
You need to breed or evolve some animal that will fill exactly the same role as them except for the biting. I propose that we introduce the concept of genders to the mosquitos so half the males will identify as female and not help reproduce or do it with other male mosquitos
Flies are worst. Mosquito bites you 1-2 times and leaves you alone. Flies can be half an hour disturbing your peace until you kill them.
Even worst knowing that mosquitos attack mostly alone. Flies can attack in packs. Flies this summer are extremely agressive (I don´t know the reason) and they even go directly to your eyes or face.
I thought I read somewhere that we're already messing with them genetically so they are all male and can't reproduce? Is that true?
Life finds a way.
if you live near a significant source of water you're basically fricked, unless you have gallons of dishsoap/vegetable oil and are willing to destroy the environment. without their eggs they are nothing.
Mosquitos are how god keeps the Black person population under control; removing mosquitoes would have a net negative impact on humanity
Bill Gates has solved that "problem", now mosquitoes only bother white people
Make them all pollinators, even females.
You don't unless you want the food chain to fail in your lifetime.
Better die as heroes than to live as losers subjected to such nuisance.
My neighbor breeds them by leaving plastic garbage around where rain water can collect and sit
>Severe dengue can result in shock, internal bleeding, and even death.
>If you have had dengue in the past, you are more likely to develop severe dengue.
I have one strike already.
just buy some lemon grass and put it in your bedroom whats the big deal
Mosquitos are an important food source for many animals including bats.
any animal that dies off because of mosquito extinction deserves to follow them
so, basically most freshwater fish?
they're full of parasites so yeah (other insects will fill the niche)
>You vill eat ze boogs
Baby monkey torture videos were a mistake.
It should've been MOSQUITO torture videos!
Make it happen, I want mosquito torture videos!
there was one guy who would like, gas them and shit
yeah i've gassed a fair few bloodsucking parasites in my days
mosquitoes on the other hand, i have yet to try
I saw one guy with a few mosquitoes in a syringe with his thumb over the end and he would do negative and positive air pressure on them
You can't torture something that lacks a capacity for suffering.
Insects might be sentient (to a low degree of course), we dont really know. They have the needed functions
Sentience does not exist wihout my empathy. And I have no empahty for mosquitoes.
I only have thirst for their extinction.
I can torture you. You can lie to me and tell you have a capacity for suffering, but how do I know?
chinese are already on it
nice frick mosquitos, and flies too.
Psychopath behaviour
Anyone who doesn't actively demand the mosquito holocaust is mentally unsound
They're insects bro
I like how he has all these elaborate devices and one of his methods is to just hold a baby chicken
magnets are cool
This is what confuses me. Baby monkey enthusiasts virtue signal about making pests suffer but chose something that makes them look comically evil, as bad as kicking puppies or stomping baby bunnies. Where the frick is hornet torture? Tapeworm beheadings?
Hornet torture is a thing I'm sure, you have people filming them under glasses online so they probably do other things, tapeworm I have no idea. (Pitygays are fricking weird, I get ridding of pests but these monkeys are endangered last I remember, wtf are they on about? And why babies specifically? They're just sickos.)
Mosquitoes are pollinators. Man up and learn to tolerate them.
I would rather the whole world burn than have mosquitoes stay alive
>random flying insect exists
>"NOOOOOO YOU CAN'T KILL THEM, THEY'RE POLLINATORS!"
Just about everything is a fricking pollinator, dude. Hell, Humans are pollinators. Square that fricking circle.
Yeah, and there's a reason for that. Everything doesn't pollinate everything. It's not like "heh, it's just one. it's no biggie." It IS a big deal. We would certainly lose a handful of plant species and potentially one or more other pollinator species if we just suddenly eliminate one (and an abundant one at that). Taking out several different organisms just because one "annoys" you is the single most selfish thing I have ever heard.
Oh boo fricking hoo. Look up the history of malaria eradication in the US. Total
Mosquito Death works. Notice how in africa, even with vaccines 1 in 4 kids die? And here, malaria no longer exists? You are welcome.
If you think a minor blip in the ecosystem is worth zika, malaria, wnv, etc, to prove that you do not think human death and suffering is a big deal please start by killing yourself as painfully as possible.
Malaria has as much right to exist as everything else.
Maybe more people should die. Human life is valued too high.
Start with yourselves
Push this too far and a based black man will start it for you (and then stop, lmao)
I'd be willing to fight you to the death if you are.
That's right, which is why I thank putin for starting a war in ukraine
Killing a bunch of poor Russians ain't going to do shit, it would be better to kill some giga polluter celeb like DiCaprio
NTA and the idea of killing all mosquitoes does sound appealing to me, but I find it disingenuous how you're pretending to be concerned over malaria which is a non-issue for you when we both know you're really concerned over being mildly annoyed by mosquito bites and the itching that comes from them.
>nooo you can't be concerned for people outside of you country! BE RACIST!!
Sweatshops are inhumane and all the big clothing corpos that use them should be dismantled.
That’s an awfully high horse.
Oh no! Not the poor Gaybonias Flattulencias! We surrely can't affort to lose a _handful_ of them!
This is the world of Man. Mosquitoes only reap what they sow.
They sowed the seed of their own demise. And by the right of my will, I will put an end to their existence.
evolution has proven time and time again that the status quo is meant to be upset, if humans manage to eradicate mosquitos others will take their place. That is the way of nature.
