Key Features
Hub Technology
Senecio employs an AI automated process to produce vast quantities of sterile male mosquitoes for release into the target area.
Our controlled environment fosters optimal conditions for mosquito breeding and larval development.
01 - Laying
The optimal growth condition produce healthier, more robust males which prove so effective at their mission that we only need to disperse them once a week, while all other SIT attempts require double that.
02 - Larvae
AI and classical image processing are used to sort of hundreds of mosquitoes per second, the fastest sorting technology for live adult mosquitoes available today.
03 - Separation
Sterilized mosquitoes are carefully packaged and prepared for release into the target area.
04 - Packaging
Males are exposed to controlled doses of radiation, rendering them sterile without affecting their mating behavior.
Our process can also be integrated with other sterilization techniques such as Wolbachia. Contact us for more details.
05 - Sterilization
Release cartridges filled with sterile males are packed together, ready to be shipped and released manually or by drone, ground vehicle or aircraft.
06 - Distribution

Mission Planning
Senecio offers a sophisticated application that integrates real-time mosquito infection data with advanced route planning algorithms.
Dispersal
Senecio has developed patented, modular release
systems for the efficient dispersal of sterile mosquitoes.
Van
Drone
Aircraft
Mosquito Robotic Release
Our system employs cartridges that sequentially release mosquitoes through a gentle air current. The release mechanism synchronizes with cartridge movement to ensure a controlled and consistent dispersal.
The systems allow releasing anywhere from 20K mosquitoes per flight for small drones, through 200K with larger drones, to millions per trip with ground vehicles or aircrafts.
By investing in a Senecio SIT HUB, you can achieve significant financial returns while making a lasting positive impact on your community.
Provide Unmatched Next-Gen Surveillance Services
Mosquito surveillance labs face significant challenges in efficiently processing and analyzing collected insects. Manual tasks such as sorting, classifying, and preparing mosquitoes for virus testing are time-consuming and prone to human error.
Senecio addresses these challenges by automating the entire process. Our solution utilizes high-resolution image processing and artificial intelligence to automatically separate, classify, and place insects into designated vials.
This ensures accurate data collection and traceability through image capture and integration with facility GIS systems.

Business Facts
A Senecio Robotics SIT HUB presents many business advantages:
$100-150 Monthly
Is the average rate homeowners in USA pay for mosquito control services.
Power of Nature
With SIT it's the male mosquitoes' job to go out and find the females, freeing the pest-control technician from the task.
4X Faster
Experienced technician's daily capacity can reach 100 release points.
Natural
The system employs no genetic modification thus minimal regulation applies - Non-GMO.
Markets
Quick ROI
You can reasonably expect 1-2 year return on investment.
10,000 Homes/Hub
One SIT HUB can cover up to 10K houses.
Monthly earning per technician: up to USD 50K
Upscale Clients
Which include municipalities, pest control companies, education facilities, sports stadiums, tourist destinations and homes.
Once a Week
Senecio hub allows for a single weekly implementation, as opposed to twice a week with all other SIT attempts. That is a result of our breeding and handling system which keeps the males in best physical shape for breeding performance.

Senecio's SIT HUBs offer a highly effective solution for residential areas plagued by mosquitoes. By strategically releasing sterile male mosquitoes in central locations within a neighborhood, we can ensure that they disperse widely, covering multiple houses and maximizing their impact. This targeted approach saves time and resources while providing comprehensive mosquito control for residents.
Residential
Senecio SIT HUBs are ideal for municipalities seeking to protect public health and enhance the quality of life for residents. By strategically deploying SIT stations in public areas, municipalities can effectively reduce mosquito populations and prevent the spread of mosquito-borne diseases. Mass dispersal methods, such as releasing sterile mosquitoes from vans, drones, or aircraft, can be used to cover large areas efficiently.
Municipalities
Mosquitoes can deter visitors and negatively impact the appeal of popular destinations. By implementing SIT technology, recreation facilities and tourist attractions can create a more pleasant environment for visitors, boosting tourism revenue and enhancing the overall visitor experience.
Attractions
A vital solution for protecting military troops and aid workers deployed in mosquito-infested areas. Our SIT technology can be rapidly deployed to establish mosquito-free zones, safeguarding personnel from the threat of mosquito-borne diseases. By reducing the risk of illness, you contributes to the overall health and well-being of military forces and humanitarian workers operating in challenging environments.
