The US plans to open a fly factory in Texas as part of its fight against a flesh-eating parasite

The US government plans to open what is equivalent to a fly factory by the end of the year to raise millions of insects in Texas near the border with Mexico as part of an effort to prevent an eating flesh eating parasite from infesting American cattle. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, Rollins, said on Wednesday that fluffy fluffy masculine lines in the installation of $ 8.5 million would be released in the wild. They mate with the females and prevent them from laying the eggs in wounds that become a flesh -eating larva. It would only be the second installation to reproduce such flies in the Western hemisphere, after one in Panama.
