What would happen if all of the mosquitoes suddenly died?
Muitoes are known to carry manyosq infectious diseases frommicroorganisms, including viruses and parasites. Mosquito-borne ill several different classes of nesses include malaria, West Nile virus, elephantiasis, dengue fever, yellow fever and several types of encephalitis.
People and animals from the wet lands will no more endure their stings too.
Also the economic impact is huge, people need medicines and professional healthcare otherwise they may die. The workforce is reduced too. All these cause a drop in GDP of the affected countries.
Have you ever been annoyed by having to swat and clap aimlessly to ward off the biggest (and probably, the most irksome) threat ever posed by a singular winged-creature? Of course you have. Mosquitoes definitely make our lives a wee bit more difficult (and itchy), especially when they have the chance of afflicting you with lethal diseases or causing you to perform some weird dance steps like these…There are almost 3500 species of mosquitoes on the planet, 200 of which are known to attack humans. Out of these, there are three specific species (Anopheles, Culex and Aedes) that are responsible for transmitting certain dangerous diseases, such as yellow fever and malaria.
Have you ever thought about what would happen if mosquitoes just went extinct?+
So, again: what would be so bad about just killing the little b******s? You’d think that question would provoke outrage and backlash from the mosquito-studying community, but in recent years some high-profile mosquito experts upended that assumption. Despite lifetimes spent studying the insects, they argue that mosquitoes could be exterminated with little global impact. The animals of the world might just buy us dinner, as thanks.
