Not always. The word "vermin" refers to animal species that are pests or nuisances; particularly those that can spread disease. Some species of cockroaches are certainly pests, such the German, American and Brown-banded. These species will infest homes, and may be very difficult to eradicate. Other species are not pests; they live outside and do not infest homes.

Because Mosquitos suck your blood and also they carry many debilitating diseases like yellow fever, malaria, and meningitis to name a few. In addition it kind of hurts when one bites you so that's why Mosquitos are and cockroaches because they breed really fast, they don't die, and women think they're disgusting which has spread to others.
