I don't care about cockroaches, they do not worry me much. I also do not care about like 95% of mosquito species which do not "annoy" humans. I just want the remaining 5% to vanish

And I'm pretty sure there have been studies that suggest that eliminating that 5% wouldn't have a significant environmental impact.

that would be great. more than disturbing balance, the 5% basically hits the poor only. reach either live in places where the 5% do not reach them, or they can be treated.

Cockroaches do a lot of litter cleanup out in nature. I worry about what might happen if they vanished. But those malaria mosquitoes can fuck right off to Hell as far as I'm concerned.
