Subject: [permaculture] Mosquitos genetically mosquitos to die without reproducing

They have already been introduced in South America. Mosquitos are annoying,
and they carry diseases, but they are ecologically irreplaceable. In my
ecosystem, dragonflies eat them, frogs eat the dragonflies, snakes eat the
dragonflies, and a large number of small and middle sized birds and mammals
eat the snakes. The concept of an animal as a "pest," as being absolutely
useless and only negative, is incomplete and destructive.
