Whats with the mosquito questions on here lately?

Ok, mosquitos are food for many different animals. The adult versions are eaten by frogs, birds, bats, spiders, other insects. The larval versions are also eaten by many types of fish. Some fish need these larval mosquitos in order to survive.

If all mosquitos were off then these animals would be deprived of a pretty big food source. Many would die because there is not enough of other types of food in their environment to keep them alive.

Now, if you want to kill all mosquitos in your backyard, then ok. That is a very small area, but to kill all mosquitos would also take down a lot of other animals as well.

The jury's nonetheless out on the authentic purpose of the mosquito. that's compared to frogs won't be able to eat different insects, in spite of everything. And without mosquitoes, we does no longer want spiders. notwithstanding, I heavily doubt you'd be able to kill each and every mosquito contained in the international. you would probable die of malaria properly earlier you would finished this variety of feat. Mosquitoes are about as far down on the threatened species record as you'll get at the same time as last a member of the animal kingdom.

Then the whole food chain would be broken.

Mosquito -> Frog -> Bird -> Other animals we eat

God would cry. He loves those little buggers. He'd probably just turn around and give ticks and fleas wings.

I'd have two cans of repellent that I'd never get to use.
