In the sci-fi movie forgetfulness, armed
drones are cast out to clean the earth and kill any and all “scaths,” or
“evil-doers” still lurking approximately following a cataclysmic lunar event evidently
shattered the planet. While Florida is not a barren wasteland, it does
have fairly a big mosquito problem, particularly in South Florida. Since South
Florida is such a hot bed for the flying pests, the mosquito difficulty has encouraged
the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District to probably join up the help of
aerial drones to help eliminate the swarming pests that carry diseases like
dengue and West Nile Virus. According to the Miami Herald, the
NC-based Condor Aerial Company will meet with local officials and show the capability
of its $65,000 “Maveric” drone over the Florida Keys. Condor Aerial
insists that the buzz would not be used for observation, simply for
mosquito-only observational purposes. That means that the drone would not be weaponized
with chemical agents, yet, but would only go out and recognize maybe mosquito
breeding problem spots. Because the drones would be able to rapidly recognize
a numeral of suspected ‘hot spots,’ inspectors could then go out and charge the
threat, and then opt to call in helicopters that are prepared to spray and kill
the plague. For those Americans who are tired out about ‘Big Brother’
using the ‘Mosquito drones’ to spy on unsuspecting Americans, Keys officials
are as well awaiting the FDA’s endorsement to releases “hereditarily customized,
sterile males (mosquitoes) into the wild to mate with wild females that would fabricate
no offspring.”
