Mosquitos are kind of modern, being only 45 million years old, way after the megafauna bugs died.
but think 40cm long, meter wide “dragonflies”, half-meter long “scorpions”, 60cm “spiders” with knifelike front legs and 250cm long millipedes (technically not an insect, but eh)
But if you’re looking for giant mosquitoes, you’re in luck: the very much not-extinct elephant mosquito can grow over 1.5cm long.
Dragonflies are possibly the most efficient predator in existence, catching up to 95% of the prey they attempt to catch. And their larvae are utterly terrifying.

Dragonflys don’t scare me, but if we got same proportional upgrades to anything that regularly bites, I would move underground.

With the 2.5 meter long millipedes…?
Yes, into a vault.
