There's a much cheaper and much older flying platform for mosquito elimination. It's called a bat.
EDIT: or perhaps the bred/genetically modified steriile mosquitos that can wipe out populations in large areas?
Self-perpetuating area-wide techniques like mass release of modified mosquitoes with gene-drive systems is very probably a superior answer if the problem is "there are too many (ie any) human-feeding mosquitoes".
If the problem is rather "what is the coolest-sounding possible way to wipe out mosquitoes", then drone-mounted lasers are in the running.
