        Huh, oh yeah, like any invertebrate, bcs they are within human space which isn’t allowed.

        Idk why my brainhole didn’t make the connection, I def know people that kill eg spiders if they see them.

        I sometimes kill mosquitos that won’t leave via regular ventilation paths.

            I leave the dead mosquitos outside as an offering for the local flying squids, much like ravens they are smart af, and a pleasant addition to the square concrete jungle we made for some reason.

          Like spray them with water? Sure, if they’re in the sink or on the counter. If you mean just swat them away, I wouldn’t trust that to kill them. And as soon as it doesn’t kill them, and they find their way back to the nest, there’s a chance they’ll lead others back, if they found so much as a scrap of food.
