Apparently you prefer cats to mosquitos. As for the botflies. Lets say this life is the beta, and there's a list of things that get in on the next one - depending upon how they do in this one. The success of the botfly, particularly the one that likes to lay it's eggs in human children's eyes, could imply that they have some pull upstairs that we, the suffering hosts, do not. Similarly, that nearly half of all known insect species (the most numerous subgroup containing species identifiers) are beetles might be seen as a seal of approval on beetledom. Truth be told, beetles and botflies have been more beneficial to this rock by a wide variety of metrics than human beings (or lions) could ever hope to be.
This, and many other reasons, is why I suspect that your list (and your beliefs regarding that list) is simply a convenient accounting of your own pet beasties...and any reference to metrics such as harmful or beneficial are simply window dressing. More power to you......but if that's how these lists are made...well..I can make lists too. That's how lions got into heaven, after all...you put em on a list. I say mosquitos are in. Enjoy your mosquito ridden lion infested hellhole for all eternity.

(on an only slightly more serious note....point to a creature you think is harmful, or one you think is beneficial...and I'm willing to wager that this is a decidedly less than divine determination, and most likely an ignorant one. Hell, if it weren;t for mosquitos...what would all the bats eat - and who doesn;t like bats...did I mention that there were bats in heaven? Yeah.....choked with mosquitos and bats..and the odd lion here and there.)
