RE: Genetically modified mosquitoes released in Cayman Islands

It's not possible for it to cause another effect. The mutation just makes the offspring from these mosquitoes sterile. Additionally mosquitoes provide no benefit to the biome 's they reside in. They could largely be completely eradicated and it wouldn't effect other organisms at all.
