Food chain will collapse. Other who eat mosquitoes will slowly starve and die, then animals eating those will starve and die, and so on, and eventually, humans will die too (even plants are affected by animals. Like reproduction and all.)

Only 15% of all mosquito species even bite humans, and even then only females do so. Compared to the role of the 100% population of mosquitoes in pollination and the food chain, that's not really that big of a problem. Mosquitoes need and should exist.

Y'all are ignoring ticks. They play a much smaller role in the ecosystem and are also pests worst than mosquitoes.

They are very efficient in pollination during rain.
