i know what it would do to ecology and shit and i would still wipe every last one off the planet

So, a lot of people say this because it makes a lot of logical sense, I thought the same, but if you actually ask people who are qualified, a lot of them are fairly sure that other insects/etc would likely fill the niche. Obviously still theory, but mosquitoes are usually not a cornerstone and likely mostly replacable.

And it's only a single species of mosquito that's response

I haven't dug too deep into the results, but there have been eradication campaigns using things like genetically modified mosquitos that would produce sterile offspring.
