Why does Google plan to release tens of millions of mosquitoes into the U.S.?

About 32 million of those blood suckers could be released. What could go wrong?

Just what we need is more mosquitoes here. We already have some in the South as big as a Falcon 9 rocket.

The male mosquitos are infected with something that, when they mate with females, will cause the eggs not to hatch. Counterintuitively, it will ultimately greatly reduce the mosquito population.

Great. Now we’ll hear from the bat lovers how this will harm them.

Or we all die in a massive outbreak of some mosquito borne disease.
I do have a nickname for the huge mosquitoes we have here in the south. I call them Skeetersqatch lol.

Because either Dr. Bill Gates or Dr. Soros told them to.

There's a zero percent chance that any net good comes from this.

I built some bat boxes for the back yard and the woods behind the house. It has actually helped. Didn't see much of a difference last year, but this summer we're seeing brown bats and they're going absolutely HAM on the flying insects. Brown bats can (and often do) eat more than their body weight in mosquitoes every night.
We can all do little things to attract bats and dragonflies (most of us, anyway) and help keep the mosquito numbers in check. I'm fortunate to live a stone's throw from a well manicured park pond, so the dragonflies are frequent visitors to the yard all throughout the warm/hot season.
On thing I'll say on behalf of the "scientists" here (for those like myself who naturally distrust these people) is that if it really is just males they're releasing, you don't have to worry about getting mRNA injected by your neighborhood swarm of Aedes Egyptii. The males are strictly pollinators and do not feed on blood. That's only females.

Baker,
Saw a documentary in Patagonia where they hunted out the jaguar so the soft footed deer, etc no longer had to constantly move around. So they stopped carrying seeds of reeds all along the river, so marshes stopped, so there was less grazing, on and on. Yes all connected.
They are already doing this in the Florida Keys. We will find out ten years from now that the mosquito also carried some anti cancer cells they had been injecting into us for centuries, but we only discover it when half of florida starts bleeding from every orifice. Dont worry big pharma has a cure......all connected indeed.

We shouldn’t allow this type of manipulation. There’s no way these clowns can know all the potential outcomes of such a radical intervention.

I have two groups of Barn Swallows that nest on my back porch. They have been nesting there for 5 or 6 years now.
They fly out in the backyard in the evening along with some that nest nearby, and fill up on flying pests.
Just got to put something under their nests to catch the mess. A triangle piece of wood works great since it's in the corner. Just slide it up there on top of the trim and off to hose off.

Experts again scare us with hypothetical anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions causing, not exacerbating, climate change based on unverifiable computer climate models that have been proven to be wrong.
Now experts knowingly are altering mosquito population with biological manipulation? WHO approved this idea? It just doesn’t happen. Someone somewhere submitted a proposal, got it approved, and got government funding.
How?

When you are on a boat on a hot day in da bayou waters, what time of day are the skeeters the worst?
Some leftist dumb woman banned DDT.
Kids chased skeeter trucks smoke clouds... they are all alive.

We're still pretending this is something new, and hasn't been done with objectively measurable effects in multiple countries and several US states in the past?

I was reading about this today. They are only releasing males. And apparently only females bite.
Posted on 6/2/26 at 6:36 am to BigTigerJoe
They probably haven't infected them with anything nefarious.
