On the topic of bugs, I literally have no idea why we haven't made mosquitos go extinct. They don't pollinate, they just spread disease. We have the technology, we can destroy malaria forever. But someone at Big Mosquito clearly has their grubby little proboscis in the bioengineering sekturs
Because mosquitoes are a food source for many other animals such as birds, bats, lizards and Africans.

 
WRONG! Male mosquitoes feed on nectar like bees, is the female mosquitoes that suck blood so they can use it for their eggs.
Thanks pleakley.

I remember finding out way way back in the day via documentaries that there's a number of recipes for food that use mosquito eggs for some reason. Not african, though. I think the first time I found out people use them was one of those shows about food and shit where they went to some mexican food market or something and they had a bin labelled mosquito eggs.

Probably to help with ease of eating. Blacks do have that Pica
 
One thing I noticed is that SLF were problematic in my area the past few years- I have not seen a single one this year: no eggs, nymphs, or adults.
is SLF short for those fucking lanternfly things that look like shield/stinkbugs but jump with the force of god as nymphs and bootleg cicadas as adults but make no funny sounds and kill trees with mold instead of just sucking on their nectar and shit? Yeah similar case here. I wonder if there might be some sort of pesticide usage or something that fucked up the cicada population on top of the lantern flies given they both tend to live around areas with trees.
