Gamma Sterilization container for male mosquitoes

Effectively controlling mosquitoes requires scientific methods, primarily focusing on reducing their population through laboratory-based sterilization of male specimens. Initially, larvae or eggs are collected from stagnant water sources or provided via separate containers filled with water for egg-laying. These develop into 40% males, which are then separated from females using pheromones and eliminated. Remaining male mosquitoes undergo gamma radiation sterilization before being released across the city. Upon mating with female mosquitoes, the resulting eggs will be weak, leading to a significant decrease in the mosquito population. To enhance this process, equipment, storage containers, and more can be designed and printed, but proper monitoring is crucial due to gamma radiation involvement; further customization of the approach is possible.
