Résumé : Suppression or eradication of insect pest populations by the release of sterile insects is often dependent on supplementary methods of pest reduction to levels where the target pest population can be overflooded with sterile insects. Population suppression activities often take place in advance of, or coincide with, the production and release of sterile insects. Supplementary methods to remove breeding opportunities, or management methods that prevent access of pests or vectors to the hosts, may reduce the population or prevent damage or disease transmission. Insecticides have been used widely in direct applications or applied as baits, in traps, or on specific sites where the pest makes contact or reproduces, although they are increasingly being replaced by biopesticides. As sterile insect release does not kill the pest, adult biting pests or fertile mated females of the pests will continue to attack hosts after the release of sterile insects. Thus supplementary pest suppression programmes and quarantine measures are essential to prevent damage or the spread of disease. Eradication or effective pest management requires that the entire population of the pest be treated, or that the programme apply immigration barriers. It also requires taking into account interactions among control methods; they can be additive, synergistic or antagonistic. When supplementary pest control activities directly benefit the human population in areas being treated, such as in mosquito or screwworm control programmes, these area-wide suppression activities are usually acceptable to the public, but when the public receives no direct benefit from supplementary control activities such as in crop pest programmes, social resistance may develop unless public information is managed properly.
