Is it really necessary to spray to kill the mosquitoes? What about all the OTHER insects that will die too? What impact will this have on the food chain? Are there alternative methods?
We need always consider the consequences for what we do. Especially the unknown ones.
mosquitos are vectors for disease, like equine encephalitis. Mice carry hantavirus. Pest control is part of global health. Not even nutjobs from PETA want to save mosquitos.

Wow!
