Western Australia has started an extensive eradication campaign against the Queensland fruit fly, one of the worst horticultural pests in the world.
The programme, the largest of its kind in Australia, and one of the biggest in the world, involves the integration of three tequniques for fruit fly control: lure trapping, protien baiting and the release of sterile male flies.
