Comparing sterile male releases and other methods for integrated control of the tiger mosquito in temperate and tropical climates

Abstract The expansion of mosquito species worldwide is creating a powerful network for the spread of arboviruses. In addition to the destruction of breeding sites (prevention) and mass trapping, methods based on the sterile insect technique (SIT), the autodissemination of pyriproxyfen (ADT), and a...
