    Abstract: A device for sorting insects into two or more classes based on size, the device comprising a drum with openings along the circumference. The insects are introduced to the drum at a first end, and the openings are sized to allow a first class of the insects to exit the drum through the circumference and the openings while the second class is retained to travel to far end of the drum, thereby sorting the insects into the classes. The drum may be held at a tilt to enable flow within the drum. The drum may rotate and a built in helix or helical screw may assist with flow. Water may be poured from above or from inside to flush insects through the openings or flush stuck insects back into the interior.

    Abstract: A storage and release mechanism for aerial distribution and release of insects from an unmanned aerial vehicle, the release being aimed at controlling a wild insect population, the wild population having fluctuating local densities, the mechanism comprising a switch for switching between two or more different sustainable insect delivery rates for release of the insects. The method is particularly suitable for sterile male mosquitoes in programs to control wild mosquito populations.

    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.
