Interestingly enough the males don't suck blood ~ that's just the females. Instead the males flit about sucking nectar and juices from plants (which allows them to carry pollen from one plant to another).

Here's the problem ~ killing mosquitoes in urban areas is not exactly something that can be sex specific, nor even species specific.
