There are fish which are eating the larvae and also adult mosquitos.

They don't feed exclusively on mosquito larvae/eggs. They can easily switch to another source.

I wonder how much has been studied about the ability of the other species to proliferate enough to make up and not be eaten out of existence. The mosquitos existing may not be the limiting factor on the population size of other species.
