What is the Meaning of Aedine?

Aedine

Sometimes at night I like to go
Around my house with a book so
I can squash the aedine things I find,
Those little bugs that buzz about
And like to suck your warm blood out
Only to leave an itchy bite behind!

And when I find the mosquito
I aim my book and quickly throw
It down upon its head and just like that
The Aedine insect's life is toast
As it becomes a tiny ghost
Leaving its mangled body that went SPLAT!

And as the bug to heaven goes
I say to the dead mosquito
That Aedine comes to us from Greek Aedes,
A word that does "unpleasant" mean
Which fits because I like to dream
That its soul will go instead to Hades!
