It'd be pretty impossible to do it in a way that effects only them and any crossover from something that can wipe out multiple species would be catastrophic.

That kind of defeatist thinking only hinders progress

AFAIK we're not trying to wipe out mosquitos just the really bad ones that carry diseases and shit.

Too bad we can't eradicate ticks. We ought to try that if we haven't already

Society/humans in general. They are an important slayer of pests that feast on crops.

Ticks are definitely on the list as well. Too many times I'm hesitant to go digging for my errant golf shots in fear of getting leeched. Fortunately, they are easily avoidable, so they're lower on the list.

Let's exterminate those pests then.
