World-Wide Directory of Sterile Insect Facilities Facilities (DIR-SIT). DIR-SIT has been established with the objective of aiding the retrieval of information on worldwide mass rearing facilities of sterile pest insects and parasitoids for purposes of using them as part of an area-wide integrated pest management through the sterile insect technique, inherited sterility and biological control. The database compiles information on production capacity, the radiation process, quality control parameters and dosimetry. DIR-SIT includes information available on mass rearing of major groups of insect pests as fruit flies, mosquitoes, moths, screwworm flies, and tsetse flies. |

Western Australian researchers have trialled new technology which offers an innovative way to control the destructive fruit pest, Mediterranean fruit fly. The research is funded by the Department of Agriculture and Food, Western Australia (DAFWA) and Horticulture Innovation Australia Limited. Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata) is a serious horticultural pest in Western Australia (WA). It attacks a range of cultivated fruits and some fruiting vegetables. Medfly, as it is commonly known, costs the WA horticulture industry millions of dollars annually in lost production and control costs. Growers use a range of methods to combat fruit fly, including pesticides, baiting and orchard hygiene. The withdrawal of organophosphates from use in commercial orchards has led to renewed interest in innovative solutions against fruit fly. The current technique - SIT |
