While some species may benefit from the absence of mosquitoes, others could face ecological disruptions due to changes in food webs.

However, eliminating mosquitoes entirely could also have unforeseen consequences, highlighting the importance of careful consideration and scientific research.

Other people have asked the same question you have, Niko, and scientists think that removing every single mosquito from the world wouldn’t have a bad overall effect on the environment. But none of us are sure what will happen to small ecosystems and whether these would be better off without mosquitoes.

The science is not really settled yet.

Yes I know. And maybe those studies are fully correct. I certainly have no way to cross check them. So you and I must take them at face value.

But even science will tell you that you should have at least some skepticism of such studies. Because it always seems like we miss some tiny important detail that only reveals it's self later as we refine our knowledge on a subject.
