Ehhh, I recently posted elsewhere: about 80 species of mosquito carry dangerous (for human) diseases. The other 3400 are harmless if very mildly annoying. And all of those species share a niche with their harmless genera mates.
It’s really really hard to kill just one species though, especially if they DO share an ecological niche with the species you don’t want to kill.

This is why releasing sterilized individuals into wild populations seems so promising, it’s species-specific
