Genetically engineered insects for sustainable pest and disease vector control

Flyttr is an Oxfordshire-based biotechnology company developing biological solutions for sustainable pest management.

Its core technology uses genetically engineered insects carrying a self-limiting gene to suppress populations of disease-transmitting and crop-damaging pests without chemicals or harm to non-target species.

Applications span dengue and malaria vector control and agricultural pest management.

The company also develops Wolbachia-based mosquito replacement and AI-powered autonomous pest surveillance systems.
