Advantages
- Safe, efficient and cost-effective tool for mosquito control.
- Species-specific and environmentally friendly technology.
- Self-limiting technology. Released adults do not establish in nature due to lack of tetracycline in nature
- Only non-biting male mosquitoes are released.
- Males seek out wild females and mate, eggs laid by females die before reaching adulthood so pest population declines.
- Male mosquitoes do not bite and cannot transmit disease
- Fluorescent markers to track released insects.
