The solution to the global insect invasion crisis
Cutting edge technology for monitoring invasive insects
At a time of unsustainable global populations and losses in agriculture caused by insect is exacerbated by global warming, our AI technology is applied to reduce inputs (insecticides/labor) and increase quality and quality of crops. And used in municipalities for identification of invasive species of insects that source and spread disease globally.
Global Insect Invasion Crisis
$1.4 Trillion in Losses Globally
$27 billion cost to North America alone
5% of Global Domestic Product
Fall armyworm destroys 40% of Africa's maize crops annually
Climate Change Amplification
Expanding geographic ranges/resilient environmental stressors
Spread of Non-Indigenous Insects
Loss of biodiversity and extinction of native species worldwide
“Alien arthropods threaten human health and jeopardize food supplies.”

Global Infestation
Costs TX livestock $732M/yr and $1.8 billiion to Texas economy annually
Killed > 10% of Key Deer in Florida
2025 – New World Screwworm, S. America, Caribbean, and Mexico (70 miles from U.S. border) $100 billion impact on U.S. agriculture
- Insects are “Cold” Blooded “Ectotherms”
- 100 Dangerous Species in Mexico Alone
- Migrate North – Increasing Annual Temperatures
- Every 3/yrs New Pests Found in U.S.
- Global Temps – Expand Geographic Distribution
- Additional Generations Annually
