Precisely. Many argue this issue from their places of privilege in the Global North when all they have seen of mosquitos is them being little annoyances.

700 million people are infected on average with deadly diseases transmitted by mosquitoes each year, and roughly 1 million of them die.

The things that mosquitos can do are nightmarish. I have seen half of a village wiped out by infections with Yellow fever, with people writhing and suffering with seizures and pain as doctors try their best to kill the pain with morphine, but it’s no use, there is no treatment or cure for Yellow Fever. or a family hearing that their loved ones have all passed away. Why? Because they got unlucky, and were killed by one bite. Children with Dengue, elderly grandmothers with malaria whose organs will simply give out under the fever, infants that get Chik Fever and will be crippled for their whole lives as the virus destroys their joints and bones.

Only those that have not seen children in body bags will argue mosquitos should not be eradicated.
