Scientists programmed the 6,000 genetically-modified (GM) Aedes aegypti male mosquitoes in such a way that when they breed with females, the offspring will die early and thus reduce their overall population. Only Aedes aegypti female mosquitoes are able to spread dengue fever, according to reports, so officials saw no problem with allowing the modified males to be released in an attempt to help reduce the mosquitoes' overall population. But Malaysian environmentalist groups and others expressed concern about the long-term effects of releasing such creatures into the wild. ~ The article from the website: [link to www.naturalnews.com]  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Y'all Are CrAzY Doom Tards!!

| czygyny User ID: 1113446 United States02/01/2011 08:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | These pest control measures can work: “In the 1930s American entomologists Raymond Bushland and Edward Knipling started researching ways that they could reduce pest populations without the use of chemicals. Their research was interrupted by World War II, but in the 1950s they renewed their work. This lead to their pioneering the use of sterile insect technology to reduce Screw flies populations in North America. They bred Screw flies and used radiation to sterilize the males. The sterile males would be introduced into the wild population in large numbers outnumbering the fertile, wild Screw flies by at least ten to one. This sterile insect technique was used successfully with Screw flies in North America, South America, and Africa. In some areas the Screw fly was completely eradicated. This was a major breakthrough because it provided pest control without the use of chemical pesticides that might harm people or the environment. This technology has also been used on the Tsetse fly that causes sleeping sickness in parts of Africa, and to control the Mediterranean fruit fly, which can be a pest of citrus crops.” [link to www.asktheexterminator.com] Kletos, Eklektos & Pistos |

I am allergic to them, they are attracted to me, and I hate them worse than anything on this planet...... . Tell that to the Eco-nuts that banned DDT, and the MILLIONS of people who have died of Malaria since they did ... ... ESPECIALLY after almost 30 years that UN phased out widespread indoor spraying of DDT, the World Health Organization announced in 2006 that the insecticide should be reinstated as one of the main weapons in the war against Malaria. . |
