Being smarter doesnt matter. Weather, mold and covid dont have intelligence. You dont need intelligence to do damage. And whenever damage happen there is always a counter reaction. Just a few counter reactions have to work. This is why we didnt get wiped out by covid. Your argument seems to be because they dont have intelligence or we are super duper and so smart we should have wiped out all the mosquitos and ants but we havent. Intelligence doesnt mean control over everything going on in the universe. In fact we cant even survive without a whole bunch of microbes doing their own thing keeping the lights on. See Lynn Margulis - Intelligence is not the main show.
