The problem with pesticides sounds eerily similar to the problem that could arise with antibiotics. As we use more and more antibiotics, the fear is that the dangerous bacteria could mutate and survive the antibiotics, thus, creating superbugs.
We could start using bacteriophages to combat antibiotic resistant bacteria. Also, unlike microorganisms, larger creatures like mosquitos don't mutate as often.

I dare say our area got safer than control as a result even.
Sam mentioned in his not-main channel that he uses Storyblocks (then Videoblocks back when he mentioned it) for his stock footage. This was way back when.
As a kid I always asked why do mosquitoes exist, like their sole purpose is to spread diseases at worst and bother the shit out of you at best (I live in the tropics, mosquito is a year-round occurrence). Nowadays I just swat them with those electric swatters.
Exist solely to keep human populations low and ruin picnics. A good parasite / virus wouldn’t kill its host so the disease spreading is quite a flaw. Maybe they’ll evolve to sterilize themselves to keep from accidentally killing their food source. Or just get really really big
As far as I know mosquitoes are sort of useful because they help with pollination (when they are off feeding on flower nectar and fruits instead of our blood).
Ecological studies have revealed that mosquitoes do not fill any ecological niche that couldn’t be filled by other species. So... yeah, they’re just a nuisance.
"this dumb everybody wins Mister Rogers BS" The generations who grew up watching him: *Them's fightin words* Me who has zapped and slapped several Asian tiger mosquitos, known to carry Zika: *Maybe I am a hero*

There's research on the possibility of engineering a "gene drive" that would cause mosquitoes to only have male offspring. Of course, that would cause them to go extinct, but in that case it would be a good thing.
"While they can seem pointless and purely irritating to us humans, mosquitoes do play a substantial role in the ecosystem. Mosquitoes form an important source of biomass in the food chain-serving as food for fish as larvae and for birds, bats and frogs as adult flies-and some species are important pollinators." copyed from a google search but its not like we need all the 3500 typs of mosquitos for that so killing the ones with deadly disease should be fine
This is a tricky one and requires the thought process of us verses them There are over 3,000 species of mosquitoes yet only around 200 carry malaria, so less than 10percent. Is it fair to destroy a whole ecology for ten percent, arguably yes due to them being one of the largest vectors for human disease. But what would be the consequence of eradicating mosquitoes, stepping away from morality But what if we stepped away from humanity and looked at the ecosystems that are dependent on these creatures for food… while they may adapt our world is already struggling with animal populations dropping… why add another problem to that? Fish, birds and flowers are dependent on mosquitoes. Why not invest in better infrastructure to support people who are struggling, distributing wealth providing research, medicine and hospitals? Our solution cannot be to kill them because where will we draw the line in our already dying world
I always start these videos being like, “there’s no way, this has got to be clickbait” and ending the video like “oh, that’s interesting, I’m going to share this to random people”

The problem with pesticides sounds eerily similar to the problem that could arise with antibiotics. As we use more and more antibiotics, the fear is that the dangerous bacteria could mutate and survive the antibiotics, thus, creating superbugs.
you can think of pesticides as antibiotics that target large animals instead of microorganisms
A bit the same with pig-farming and high levels of penicillinen. What we eat we become...slowly.

Ok but getting rid of mosquitoes 🦟 like all of them or really just any species because that will most likely have huge problems on the environment in which that species or any species really of that mosquito lives in and because although this is an option the extinction of ANY species is a bad thing!
That is a risk i am kind of okay with taking, if shit happens, shit happens, but at least there will be no mosquitoes, if as a consequence we cause a mass extinction event that is also okay, no price is too expensivee to get rid of mosquitoes
4:57 This is really only a 4-minute video. The 1st minute is a bad joke setup and the last minute is an ad.
Thanks for featuring Singapore!
Wait no, you do that everyday.
Aren’t all vaccines developed in a lab.., that’s how most medicines are developed… what
That's the joke, he was stating things that sounded like conspiracies but were actually just obvious information
I learnt how baby's are made, Wikipedia told me. Stalks.
When you realise that mosquitoes don't have anti-vaxxers but human do.
HAI: I can't make my vids too long
also HAI: 30 seconds funny sponsor segue in *every* video
Orrr, or just hear me out…dragonflies 😂😂. LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT HOW GOOD DRAGONFLIES ARE AT KEEPING MOSQUITOES UNDER CONTROL
Yeah..they are tasty too after being baked in bamboo..
Dragonflies W
sadly we don’t really have that much dragonflies here. Also dragonflies could only live near water but mosquitoes are pricks and spread everywhere so
You should check the release of tons of flies in the border of Guatemala and Mexico too, interesting stuff.
Wouldn't this be a better time to plug Brilliant's stuff on population genetics instead of computational biology?
Big brain scientists, keeping themselves forever relevant instead of solving the problem once and for all
You really should make Rush Lim-bot a recurring character
"How do we fight fire?"
"We burn down all the buildings"
1:00 something racist

Mosquitoes - the most OP weapon of all time
I like how every Limbaugh conspiracy is either true or up for debate 😄
Nah they just cliche
They’re all literally true, just misleadingly worded:
- Obama wasn’t born in the contiguous US, but that’s because he was born in Hawai’i
- COVID-19 vaccines are made in labs, but that’s because every vaccine is
@@EnigmaticLucas But Obama wasn't born in Hawaii.
@@RabbiHerschel And the sky is neon green
@@EnigmaticLucas The sky is blue, and Barack Hussein Obama was not born in the United States or any of its territories.
I got an ad for a mosquito repellent for this video
They are doing cool stuff, but I'm a bit scared of living near this factory LOL
The male mosquitoes don’t bite, so it’s not like they’ll bother anyone. Living near them would actually benefit you because there will be less and less mosquitoes every week
the stock footage on this channel makes my depression worse
The Dave and Busters metaphor 😂😂😂
