99.5% of the offspring of GE mosquitoes will carry malaria-blocking genes and they are 10-15 yrs. away from being released. Do you feel GE bugs will harm our environment? (I could have said come back to bite us.) Yes

We could have GE bugs released and not know it. Example: In 2009 GE bugs were released onto Grand Cayman Island in secret. Are you worried this could happen to us anywhere we live? Yes
