Mind you, not exactly selective. But it definitely does kill both mosquitoes and their larvae. |

This is a great idea, except for the cloud/rain part.
Mosquitoes generally don't fly in the rain, because a
raindrop hitting a mosquito is similar to the contents
of an olympic swimming pool hitting an Airbus. Not
that the latter experiment has yet been done, of
course. |

Would this work on Internet bugs in the "cloud" ? |

Sadly, mosquitoes have a very good technique at not getting squamshed by raindrops. See video etc |

I thought this was obvious, but the point is not for the rain
to deliver the mosquitocide directly onto the mosquitoes
while they're flying around. The point is for the rain to
deliver the mosquitocide into the standing water in/near*
which the mosquitoes lay their eggs. Rain delivery is the
most effective way I can think of to poison all standing
water in a given geographical area, and thereby deny the
mosquitoes any places to reproduce. |

Mosquitos cannot be defeated so we should find out what
they are demanding and begin negotiating. |
|
| |
Absolutely not. They can be defeated, and they will be defeated. After all, no-one's tried building a wall yet, have they ? |
