USDA plans to release sterile flies in Texas and Mexico to combat the deadly screwworm pest.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture plans to breed and release billions of sterile flies in Mexico and southern Texas to combat the flesh-eating screwworm fly, which can kill livestock and pets.
The sterile male flies will mate with wild females, preventing offspring and collapsing the pest population.
The USDA will invest $8.5 million for a Texas distribution hub and $21 million to convert a Mexican facility, aiming to produce up to 400 million sterile flies weekly.
