In my brain, the sterile mosquito did not spread and kill the entire world's mosquito population, so I'm unsure why that would happen with the Lanternfly population. And I'm unconvinced the "kill 'em all!" approach to dousing everything in insecticide is that much better. But, it's obviously a very dangerous and powerful tool that should be thoroughly considered. After watching the emerald ash borer devastate my home state I am a but bullish on killing off invasive species.
