Interesting discussion! This could be looked at in many different ways. The Bible does say that killing is a sin, and it doesn't clearly differentiate between killing humans, animals, insects, or even foliage. We kill animals and living plants every day for food, which is necessary for life. I would take that to mean that this is OK, since there is a reason for this killing. The same goes for mosquitoes, in a different way. There is a reason to exterminate them. Mosquitoes have absolutely no known purpose for living; they are obnoxious insects and they spread deadly diseases to humans and animals. Looking at it this way, then I would say that killing mosquitoes is NOT a sin. In fact, killing mosquitoes is good for mankind!
