There is only one animal that causes more human deaths than humans do, and that’s mosquitoes. Hundreds of thousands of humans die every year due to mosquitoes. Mosquitoes have absolutely zero concern for your life or the lives of your loved ones. Why, then, should you be concerned with their lives?

There are a few reasons why it is harder to kill a mosquito than a fly.  they are not called FLY for no reason !

but mosquitoes are also hard to kill for these  reasons

Size

The first reason is that mosquitoes are smaller than flies. This makes them more difficult to target and hit. Additionally, mosquitoes are more agile than flies, and can quickly change direction to avoid being swatted.

Flight pattern

Another reason is that mosquitoes have a different flight pattern than flies. Mosquitoes fly in a more erratic pattern, making them more difficult to track. Additionally, mosquitoes often fly close to the ground, making them more difficult to reach.

Exoskeleton

The third reason is that mosquitoes have a hard exoskeleton that protects them from being swatted. This exoskeleton is also difficult to penetrate with a fly swatter.

Senses

Finally, mosquitoes have very good eyesight but not as good as Flies  . This allows them to sense danger and fly away before they can be swatted. and hearing  well you all know the sound a mosquito makes at night   but well flies dont  really make sounds

Tips to kill a mosquito

Here are a few tips to kill a mosquito:

  • Use a fly swatter with a large surface area. This will make it easier to hit the mosquito.
  • Aim for the mosquito’s head. This is the most vulnerable part of its body.
  • If the mosquito is flying erratically, try to trap it in a cup or glass. Then, you can swat it or drown it.
  • You can also use an insecticide to kill mosquitoes. However, be sure to follow the instructions on the product label carefully.

Overall, mosquitoes are difficult to kill  especially when they are  vampires who mostly operate at night and due to their smaller size, agility, flight pattern, exoskeleton, and good eyesight and hearing.

Please note that I am not advocating violence against any living creature. However, I understand that mosquitoes can be a nuisance and a health hazard. If you must kill a mosquito, please do so in a humane way.

Lol you guys who actually save flies or feel bad for killing flies honestly need to go see a doctor fast! Flies carry bacteria they are flying living bacteria, they love living, eating, breathing shit, they land on poop and like take a swim and a dip in it, and then make their way to your home and all over your food, so I think its normal to kill them, also they don’t have hearts, or brains to know anything, they don’t have mums and dads to go home to or even care, they are born maggots that your playing around with feeling sorry for and saving from whatever, so kill them all, they are not pets or in dangerd species they are overflowing our bins and breeding more and more and some even start going into peoples dogs wounds and also killing our dogs, so maggots and flies are evil most disgusting flying insect ever! Kill them god will still love you!

If it can’t fly it’s not healthy. They only live for a few days even at the best of times. You can kill it or feed it to your fish.

Has to do with wing area to weight ratio. Flies have more wing area for their weight than mosquitoes, plus flies have stronger power to their wings. Their vision is also more acute and greater view angles..

 

I believe kill them all you want, they don’t live very long and chances are they will soon be eaten by something anyway (even if you kill them). In addition mosquitos are more than pests, their cold blooded murderers (pun intended). Mosquitoes have killed more men then men have. Think about that all our wars all the murders and mosquitos reign supreme. They have killed more people than any other animal (gotta feel bad for the mighty bears, sharks, lions, and other big scary creatures always being low in the “most humans killed” contest)

Worried about the environmental impact? There are enough mosquitoes nothing will notice. In fact this is a clip from a wired article about ELIMINATING ALL MOSQUITOES forever.

“Mosquitoes deserve to be hated. Not only are they annoying pests who love to buzz right next to your ear, they’re notorious carriers of disease. In fact, by almost any measure the mosquito is the world’s most lethal animal species, killing and maiming millions through the spread of disease and parasites.
Malaria is the classic example, but mosquitoes carry all manner of harmful microorganisms that can attack humans, livestock, or just about anything else. Mosquitoes can devastate towns as plague-carriers, or ruin economies as pests.

Ugh…

So, again: what would be so bad about just killing the little b******s? You’d think that question would provoke outrage and backlash from the mosquito-studying community, but in recent years some high-profile mosquito experts upended that assumption. Despite lifetimes spent studying the insects, they argue that mosquitoes could be exterminated with little global impact. The animals of the world might just buy us dinner, as thanks.
How can that be? Mosquitoes represent an enormous amount of biomass on Earth. They affect the behavior of all manner of species, act as an abundant food source for insect-eaters, drive the evolution of all sorts of defense mechanisms. Yet there seems to be good evidence showing that we could easily survive their absence — in fact, we might not notice any downside at all.
If true, this fact seems to stem from the species’ small size and quick nature; even those species that eat mosquitoes generally only use them to supplement their diet. Few animals will starve as a result of the loss, and many others will live.
It’s not just the absence of disease, as arctic caribou have been shown to lose up to a third of liter of blood to mosquitoes per day — and replacing that blood surely saps the last bit of energy of some old or sickly individuals. In fact, the arctic is thought to be one of the only places that will notice the loss of the mosquito, where caribou paths dictate much about the ecosystem — caribou now walk largely into the wind to help hinder mosquito swarms.

Huge caribou herds lose millions of liters of blood to large mosquito swarms.

In other places, where mosquitoes do represent seemingly necessary links in the food chain, they can simply be replaced; in many cases, there is a competitor insect that would love to move into the mosquito niche. A frog that eats 50% mosquitoes and 50% moths would love to eat 100% moths, given twice as many available to eat. But, we must admit, there are times when the math does not work out, and that the loss of mosquitoes would end in the eradication of a predator fish or bird, which would cause ripples through the local ecosystem. Still, mosquitoes don’t really control any populations, so it’s unlikely we’ll see an explosion of any dangerous species currently kept at bay by the common mozzie.”

Idolatry is not a thing of the past. Idol worship today might look different, but we have modern day idols all around us. Let's look at what these modern idols are and how we can overcome them.
