Most mosquito species don't pray on humans. For anti-disease and anti-annoyance practice we would only need to kill those mosquito species that bite humans.
In additional humanity likely killed a few species with DDT that was used against mosquitos. I think it's plausible that the world loses less species if we would remove the mosquitos that bite humans.
