I don't know if it's only me sha, but everyday I keep wondering, apart from biting and sucking the human skin and blood, what usefulness are mosquitoes to the balancing of the ecosystem. We're they just created to be a pest to humans or what? Cos left for me, I do not see any verifiable reason why God would create such evil organism to coexist with Man whom He said He loves and created in His own image.

They play the role of balance.

disease cause death..
.death is balance in the ecosystem

They are also prey in the food chain to small reptiles

If not for them, people that produce anti mosquitoe medicines and the likes will be out of business. So nothing is absolutely useless. ( Not even N*g*r*an galz grin)

I still wonder why God created mosquitoes.


It's more noble to live with a Nigerian girl than to live with mosquitoes.

You should have googled this, lots of economic importance.
Their lava (young ones) for instance are food for plankton, plankton are food for small fishes and prawns, and they in turn are food for bigger fishes.

A certain county in the US fumigated their environment against mosquitos, suddenly all the fishes in their river disappeared.

I'm God's servant. As in I would be asking him questions everyday as to why. As a servant not bad to ask the Master a particular question each day.

Mosquitoes are said to have negative economic value. This means that on their own, their actions are negative but economically helpful.

Mosquitoes cause malaria, which means you have to get medications. Pharmaceutical companies produce these things and make money,which helps the economy.

From production to distribution and everything concerning Malaria, there has to be over a 20m people (not official stat), whose feeding and well being depend on that tiny insect.
