I take it the answer is that we still (unfortunately) need them?

Last I checked, the only niche they fill in nature is being food for predators like dragonflies and bats.

I read that only a few species bite humans. If this is correct, we can exterminate just those, and leave the rest for the dragonflies and the bats

I can feed those dragonflies and bats myself, so no need for those mosquitoes. I say bring out the nuclear option

They have varied enough diets to be mostly fine without them.
