I'm with Rouge on this one. Messing with mother nature on a scale like this, always has unintended consequences that we didn't have the foresight to see.

It would be so tempting to eliminate mosquitoes. But I agree that would be playing with fire, in the big ecological picture.

Some people advocate returning to the use of DDT and other chemicals. If Malaria killed a member of your family, you might have a different perspective on eliminating the little buggers entirely.
