Debugging on a major scale: Google seeks to unleash millions of sterile male mosquitoes

They want to do what? A Google proposal to release 32 million mosquitoes in California and Florida might prompt double-takes, especially for those poor souls who serve as mosquito banquets during the summer.

The goal, however, is to “stop bad bugs with good bugs” and stymie the invasive Aedes aegypti mosquito species by releasing sterile male mosquitos into the wild, according to Google’s Debug Project.
