external URL: http://www-ididas.iaea.org/IDIDAS/default.htm

The International Database on Insect Disinfestation and Sterilization or IDIDAS provides information on the doses of radiation used in the control of pest insects and mites of agricultural, commercial or quarantine significance. It includes data on both the radiation dose required for the disinfestation of generic commodity groups, fresh and durable, and also the radiation dose used to induce sterility for pest control through the sterile insect technique. Information on disinfestation and sterilization, where available, is shown together for each pest species and is accessed through a single search function.
