This project explores innovative biological control methods for managing mosquito populations, particularly the Tiger mosquito. By enhancing the sterile insect technique with biocides, the research aims to improve the effectiveness and sustainability of pest control strategies.
EFSA recently prohibited 75% of insecticides to account for their toxicity and ecotoxicity.
Moreover, the spread of insecticide resistance and invasion of Europe by new tropical vectors and pests require the development of alternative biological techniques.Recently, we hypothesized that shifting the vision of the sterile male from a sexual competitor only to a specific transporter of active biocides to the targeted female might boost the impact of the sterile insect technique (SIT).
