Guideline on Phytosanitary Procedures for Area-Wide Management of Fruit Fly Pests
This guideline describes the most widely used classic and modern phytosanitary procedures for the management of fruit flies that infest fruits and vegetables and that are of quarantine and economic importance, specifically species of the genera Anastrepha, Bactrocera, Ceratitis, Dacus, Rhagoletis and Zeugodacus. Pest management can be aimed at the native species of fruit flies or to prevent the introduction, establishment and spread of those non-native species.

Guidelines for Mass Rearing and Irradiation of Drosophila suzukii for Sterile Insect Technique Application Version 1.0
The present document describes the standard mass rearing protocols and sterilization procedures currently used at the IPCL. In the first part of the document, we describe the mass rearing oviposition system used at the IPCL and detail the different steps necessary to maintain a SWD laboratory colony, in particular egg collection, larval rearing, and pupae collection. In the second part, we present the pupal irradiation procedure, as well as the method to measure adult sterility level.

General guidelines to facilitate the opening of international markets for fruits and vegetables that are fruit fly hosts based on International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures
The key to opening markets in the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (the SPS Agreement) and the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) framework, is to focus on the pest risk, and especially on all the factors contributing to risk and mitigating risk. There is often a tendency to begin with legacy concepts and requirements that were based on assumptions of high risk rather than begin with a fresh view of the evidence and an objective analysis of the risk.
