so if mosquiotos are oblivious to rain is there some way to make artificial rain with different properties that could destroy mosquitos en masse?

Yes, it's called poison and it's being done a lot.

Ah you mean different mechanical properties ;)

Anything that causes the water to stick to them rather than letting them bounce off should work. Just mixing in a little soap maybe?
