Why did God create Mosquitos?

[Elihu]

Give me one good reason.

Copied from the internet


They are a major food source for lots of critters. Mosquito larvae are food for fish and other meat-eating creatures that hang out in water. And when the adult mosquitoes emerge from the water, they are food for bats, birds, dragonflies, spiders and anything else that can catch them and also happen to eat meat. One of the reasons many birds migrate to the north each year to breed is because of the plentiful supply of bugs, including mosquitoes, that they can feed to their young.

Ever heard of the food chain ....

Mosquitoes were created good. God looked on all that He created and called it "good". He could never have called 'good' the nasty little thing that buzzes around and torments us all. No, it was a result of sin that we have these nasty little bloodsuckers to have to deal with.

So you are saying that mosquitoes were not created at the original creation?

Not necessarily but maybe. If they were around at creation I don't think they tormented Adam and Eve. I think that they turned nasty after sin entered the human race.

What do you think?

I don't see any evidence of any subsequent creation of living creatures after the initial creation week.

I am also not sure that God defines paradise by lack of annoyances... the same as peace is not defined by lack of war.

The end statement for me is... I don't know if Adam & Eve were bitten by mosquitoes. But I certainly don't feel I have enough reason to postulate any theory of an "extra-original creation" creation of animals.

Serpents were created at the original creation.

One would have to assume this would also include ants, spiders etc.

Did they go on the ark with Noah?
