Mosquitoes
The larva are fish food. Engineer the bloodsucking out of them and turn them into pollinators...
Well if anyone would know, it's Charles Darwin. How 'bout we leave it upside down and just put it somewhere else?If your nose would be the other way around it would collect rain water so it is definitely the right way around...at least for life on the british isles.
And don't start gettin' all serious about it being there so we can smell the food we are about to eat. I don't buy it for a second. Some of the best food I've ever eaten wouldn't have happened if my nose had a say in it.
Yes, mosquitoes kill more humans than any other animal.
The scary part is when you extrapolate that given the mossies have been around throughout human evolution, how many in total over the last million years they have killed.

I predict that Zika will force the use of Crispr to bio-engineer sterility or some-such into them.

The problem isn't insects, its the continual encroachment onto forests and swamps. The problem overall is overpopulation.
We would be perfectly fine if we didn't continually try to screw things up and move and spread out on the earth.
I'm convinced that humans won't stop until every last inch of rainforest is paved over with and turned into a supermall to sell off the last remaining scraps of our planet's natural resources.
Either we all start building archo like in Sim City 2000 or we start collectivley living sustainably.

No, Rachel Carson killed more humans than any mosquito or group of mosquitos thereof.

Bio engineer types are already doing this.

care to show the class your math on that?
I think there's a short list of humans directly responsible for more than a few million deaths each during the past couple of centuries
edit - and to extend a bit further on Ron's comment a few posts back - when the pollinators go, we're in deep do-do
