Wow bummer, do you have a good link about that? Screw worms are controlled very successfully this way, although they are sterilized via radiation not genetic modification. I wonder if that makes a difference. Sorry to ask you for a link and use a YouTube video as my source but it's the best I got right now: https://youtu.be/Olj8arvfYj4 https://youtu.be/Olj8arvfYj4

Releasing sterilized male mosquitos into the environment also works very well, but is of course not gene drive, and you have to keep doing it to keep populations low.
