You realize alot of animals eat mosquitoes right? They are part of the food chain

Yes, but the mosquitos will be replaced in their environment by other bugs that are equally tasty and don’t also kill humans in such massive numbers.

I agree with what you said (as far as I know) but that isn't exactly what the comment that the GP replied to was saying.

> However, mosquitos have absolutely no value and can be exterminated to extinction.

I'll issue a correction: as mass murderers they have negative value. Their lives must be extinguished.
