So you don&#x27;t have a source?<p>I went to grad school with a lot of ecologists (not an ecologist myself). I&#x27;ve seen countless presentations about anthropogenic threats to all kinds of ecosystems. I&#x27;ve never seen anything that included mosquitoes as anything but a disease vector, and I&#x27;ve heard numerous opinions saying that mosquitoes are the one class of animal whose absence would not be noticed by the ecosystem. To back that claim up, I have the micro-review in Nature that I linked above. You can find more sources by following the citation web from it.<p>Gene drives are certainly a powerful and dangerous technology. But if you want to argue against using a gene drive on mosquitoes from a scientific standpoint, you need to present scientific evidence.
