There are more diseases spread by insects than can fit in this answer, but two are notable for their kill rate.
Firstly the 'Black Death', the plague which killed a third of the population of Europe in the 17th century was spread by fleas which lived on rats and secondly malaria, spread by mosquitoes, kills millions of people every year in tropical areas.
