Has all of nature lost to blood-sucking parasites?

Varroa Mites are infecting and destroying bee hives
Large swathes of nature turn inaccessible seasonally (or permanently) because of disease carrying parasite infestations
Most animals, including humans, just have to live with it. At best, humans have exclusion.
They only seem to be growing in reach as global air warms...

When are we going to do something about these menaces?

not just that

put chiggers on that list too, they only eat skin, but they fucking itch like crazy for weeks and leave a fucking blister

Cool it with the antisemitic remarks

>>5090154
Don't forget bedbugs which are the most psychologically damaging parasites for humans. Immediate nuclear option to stand any chance of eradicating those fuckers. Not sure about the other parasites but you can definitely blame filthy immigrants for the surge of bedbugs in the civilised world.
>When are we going to do something about these menaces?
Western governments won't do anything, they love flooding our countries with parasites after all.

Some are okay

what if we just genocide them hitler style would it damage the ecology? do they contribute positively to anything?

I had bed bugs once. One of the worst experiences of my life.

We have no real way of combating them as of now
The best method we have is complete habitat destruction (Deforestation, paving, desertification, lake draining) which isn't a real solution to the plight in the OP

>find bugs like these gross
>completely fine with leeches
Why is that? Maybe it's because they don't spread shit like lyme. I used to keep one in a jar on my desk years ago. Easiest pet I ever had.

A lot fewer moving parts

Helps that they're actually medically useful and only live in water. They also just take what they need and leave instead of turning into a plague like mites and bedbugs.

Satan's chosen jarasites

Thankfully anyone can avoid them by simply not going in the water, ticks on the other hand seem to be on every patch of greenery.

Somebody call Carter, we can get this done.

Depends on where you live, actually. Some live on land in very damp environments and will dangle off trees and bushes to grab someone like ticks do.
