    Mosquitos are one of the most prolific pollinators, I think you’d find most biologists would tell you this.

      really, they are that relevant in pollination too? I thought it was some nutrient feedback link from large fauna to lake environments.

      Damn, can’t even hate on mosquitos. Where will this ever end?

      BTW I recently learned the itchiness is just allergies. Some people aren’t allergic to mosquito bites and donate their blood to them without consequences. Other than the odd transmitted disease, of course.
