This chapter focuses on the use of release of insects carrying a dominant lethal (RIDL) technology in achieving a version of sterility using genetic engineering rather than sterilizing radiation or chemosterilization. The importance of mathematical models in the development and assessment of this new genetics-based approach in insect pest control is also discussed.
