Fighting mosquitoes with mosquitoes

Highly effective, eco-friendly mosquito control

Invasive mosquitoes are spreading throughout the US and Europe

Standard control methods are losing effectiveness as mosquitoes rapidly become pesticide resistant.
As a result, people increasingly find themselves unable to enjoy their back yards and at risk from emerging and potentially devastating diseases.

Fighting mosquitoes with mosquitoes

The sterile insect technique (SIT) is a highly effective and eco-friendly method for mosquito control.
Mosquito females only mate once. Overwhelming an area with sterile males (males don’t bite) leads to a population suppression of >90%.
