However, researchers haven\u2019t fully understood how this happens until recently.<\/p>\n<p>New research has shown that genetics might play a role in this effect. These findings could mean that researchers can use it for developing ways to sterilize pest populations in order to keep them under control. In fact, sterile male mosquitoes have been released in five different countries to keep a disease called Dengue under control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Effective Pest Control<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While this research should lead to some improved methods of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allisonpest.com\/about-us\/services.php\" target=\"_blank\">pest control<\/a>, it\u2019s not fully underway just yet.
