Abstract: Apparatus for rearing of aquatic insects, comprises one or more water trays filled with water and larvae being reared, a water inlet leading to the water surface and a water outlet leading from the water surface, the water inlet closed with an inlet valve and the water outlet closed with an outlet valve. The tray has a mesh, and the insects reared in water in the tray are above the mesh. The tray has a water cleaning configuration in which the inlet and outlet valves are open to flush clean water through the tray while the mesh holds the insects so that they do not get flushed out as the water is changed.

Abstract: A method of separating a batch of insects from a trap into individual insects comprises pouring the batch into a container having at least one hole, the hole being sized for a single insect; and moving the container to shake the insects within so that individual insects are caused to exit via the hole onto a collecting surface, thereby providing separated insects onto the collecting surface. The insects from the trap may then be counted and image recognition may be used to identify the genus, species or gender. The process may be carried out for multiple traps and location data may be stored with the insect identifications to give a map of insect distribution.

Abstract: A method of applying an operation to an individually separated and immobile insect comprises directing a mass of insects onto a permeable surface, and applying a pressure gradient through the permeable surface to apply suction of the insects down into the surface, to immobilize the insects. The operation, whether it be counting, classification, sorting or sterilization, is then carried out on the immobilized insects.

Abstract: A method and system for preparing a distribution program for insects comprises obtaining distribution data of a wild population of insects; obtaining distribution parameters including distribution resolution levels of at least one available distribution vehicle; generating a population density map at a resolution level consistent with the distribution resolution level of the vehicle; generating a release map by modifying the population density map in accordance with the distribution parameters; and generating a path using the release map, the path defining dosages of insects to be released at respective locations along the path.

Abstract: Apparatus for automatic loading of pupae into cartridges for growing, hatching into adults and dispersal of the adults, comprises: a pupa tray of pupae in liquid. A cartridge hatches the pupae into adults and may be placed in a dispersal machine for dispersal of the adults. The cartridge has a drainage hole covered in netting at a lower end, and when filled with pupae and needing water, may be placed in a water tray to retain water in the cartridge. Then, following hatching of the pupae, the cartridge is lifted from the water tray to drain via the drainage hole to provide a dry environment for the adults.

Abstract: An insect distribution device to be carried by drone to distribute insects from the air, comprises a source of passive cooling; an insect chamber; one or more insect containers in said insect chamber; and a release point. The source of passive cooling is in thermal contact with the insect chamber to keep the insect container below a predetermined temperature to keep said insects passive during storage. The device is designed to feed the insect containers in turn to the release point for aerial release.

Abstract: A diffuser for distributing insects such as mosquitoes from an aircraft, comprises a distribution tube connected to an insect source at a first end and open to the outside at a second end in a direction away from that of travel of the aircraft, for distribution of the insects; and a profile surrounding the second end, the profile being shaped to define a steadily changing airspeed. The pipe may be aligned with airflow at the point of exit of the pipe and protection may be provided around or just upstream of the exit to provide a point of minimal air velocity at the exit, the exit being the point of release of the insects.
