Why does releasing infertile males prevent the fertile males from reproducing? Are mosquitoes pair-bonding??

It is because female mosquitos only mate once in their lifetime.

And also since they don't bite, they won't compete for the same resources / food.

I had the same question when reading website - really poorly explained. Not sure why they also advertise that those genetically modified males are non biting and harmless - all males mosquitos are like that.
