Novel Sterile Insect Technology Program Results in Suppression of a Field Mosquito Population and Subsequently to Reduced Incidence of Dengue

Lisiane de Castro Poncio et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates the success of using sterile male mosquitoes in preventing the spread of dengue. During the implementation, significant reduction of Ae. aegypti population in treated areas was observed, leading to a substantial decrease in dengue incidence.

Releasing incompatible males drives strong suppression across populations of wild and Wolbachia-carrying Aedes aegypti in Australia

Nigel W. Beebe et al.

Summary: Releasing sterile or incompatible male insects is a proven method of population management with the potential to revolutionize mosquito control in agricultural systems. A study in northern Australia using the incompatible insect technique (IIT) with the mosquito vector Aedes aegypti showed significant population declines, indicating the potential of this method in field settings.

Sterile Insect Technique: Successful Suppression of an Aedes aegypti Field Population in Cuba

Rene Gato et al.

Summary: The sterile insect technique (SIT) is an effective and environmentally friendly method of insect control that relies on releasing large numbers of sterile insects to compete and induce sterility in target populations. In a pilot trial in Havana, Cuba, irradiated male Ae. aegypti were released to suppress the wild population, resulting in significant reduction of mosquito populations and successful competition leading to sterility. This approach shows promise for sustainable vector population management and reducing mosquito-borne diseases.
