The tsetse is a bloodsucking insect found in sub-Saharan Africa which transmits a parasite that can be fatal to both animals and humans.

Fighting the tsetse fly using irradiation involves rearing and then releasing in the environment sterile male flies to mate with wild females producing no offspring, reducing the population over time. But sorting thousands of male flies from females every week, which is done by hand, is a tedious process , the IAEA said. A new technique and machine - developed by the IAEA in cooperation with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) - with an ....
