The fly was contained in Panama but was spotted late last year in Mexico. The plan: Ramp up breeding and dispersal of sterile male files and release them. They mate with wild females, who lay unfertilized eggs. Fewer larvae, the fly population drops and disappears. #ksleg
The pest is the New World screwworm fly (and, yes, there is an Old World one). It's unusual for a fly in that the larvae feed on live flesh and fluids and not dead material. Females can smell wounds and drop their eggs in them. #ksleg
