The method involves placing the eggs of modified mosquitoes in boxes that mimic their environment, where they develop and emerge as adults.

In Brazil, scientists have created genetically modified mosquitoes. So the government is taking extraordinary measures to combat the sharp rise in dengue fever cases. It was reported by Reuters.

Researchers have released GMO insects into the environment, which should reduce the population of dangerous mosquitoes.
