After release of an average of 1260 sterile male each day for a period of sixty two days, the
average fertility of Aedas aegypti population remained above 50% in Ererwani village. It is
concluded that the irradiated sterile males may not be suitable as a control measure, despite
the fact that irradiation was carried out in nitrogen atmosphere.
