In real world decisions, you have to account for both costs and benefits.

If we ignore the cost of 1700 people dying per day I agree with you. But to me the chance of saving a human life every 50 seconds vastly outweighs the risk to some random local mosquito species.

The risk is that the species eradication leaps between species and wipes out other species we want to preserve. Seems like a negligee risk to me, but maybe it is real?
