In my opinion, we should not get rid of the mosquitoes. They are an important environmental factor in their ecosystem. Without them, the animals who depend on them for food will decrease in numbers. Many animals eat mosquitoes, such as bats, birds, fish, frogs and tadpoles, spiders, turtles, dragonflies, and damselflies. Many of those species survive mainly on the mosquitoes. They will suffer if the mosquito is eradicated. Although some say that these animals have other prey, they will still decrease if the mosquito dies out. If those animals decrease in population, the animals that feed on them will die too! It will be a never ending chain.
However, many mosquitoes do carry disease. If they were made extinct, the chance of getting the diseases spread by them would decrease. But, those diseases can be spread in other ways! Killing off the mosquitoes would not completely get rid of the risk of certain diseases. The diseases that are spread by mosquitoes are transmitted by blood. For example: if a human with malaria had an open sore or wound and came in contact with another human being, that human would get the blood of the person with malaria into their system. That could cause them to get malaria as well.
in my case i use Mosquito Bits as way to kill them. Work's good.
