Yes, I always find it very useful to condemn the mosquitoes when someone is bitten. If they aren't heartily condemned, they will be legitimized and emboldened.
The evil victim blamers say "why was she wearing that short skirt?" They don't realize that the mosquitoes are sexist, and that we can and should eliminate all of the mosquitoes so she can wear what she wants.
> t sounds like you are victim blaming.
It sounds like you think victims are necessarily blameless.

We can and should eliminate all of the mosquitoes. Especially the female ones.
No, we should not. Only those who bite humans and carry disease. (The vast majority does not)
Until we do, I'm going to continue to blame you for being bitten.
Gallipolli, 1915:
"Hey, maybe we shouldn't send men over the top only to die in a barrage of machine gun fire..."
"That's just victim blaming--it isn't our behavior that needs to change; it is the enemy's behavior that needs to change."
Victim-blaming is another term that is apparently becoming a meaningless vibe.
