Description
BigSis presents its innovative chemical-free insect control solutions based on the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), a platform technology that has been effectively deployed for over 60 years. SIT is species-specific, non-toxic and benign to pollinators and other beneficial insects, resulting in less pesticide residue on food and less pollution on land and water. Regular releases of sterile male insects throughout the season prevent pest infestation from reaching economic spray thresholds, increasing crop yields and compatibility with organic farming. BigSis solutions have already been approved for sale in England and four USA states (WA, OR, CA and FL) due to their benign environmental profile, 60-year safety track record, use of locally sourced insect strains, and non-use of genetically modified insects.
