      We desperately need to find a way to exterminate these wretched creatures from the face of the planet. If there was ever a reason to deliberately make something go extinct, this has got to be the one.

        Mosquitoes are part of food chain. They causes harm to us, but making them extinct is not an option unless we know how to manage the gap in food chain it will leave behind.
