Flyttr

Leader in biotech solutions to safely and sustainably control pests that spread disease, damage crops & harm livestock

Oxitec has announced it will become Flyttr™, marking a pivotal evolution from a pioneering biotechnology company into a global solutions platform preparing to lead a new era of sustainable pest management to solve the world’s most complex and rising pest challenges.

Flyttr is launched as pest threats to human health, food security, livelihoods and ecosystems are intensifying globally. Pests claim over a million human deaths per year, threaten the health of billions more, and destroy over 20% of all agricultural output every year, severely impacting food security. As these and other pest threats grow, traditional pest control tools, fragmented approaches and single-intervention strategies are no longer sufficient to deliver effective or sustainable outcomes.

Building on Oxitec’s two decades of leadership, combined with new acquisitions, partnerships and infrastructure, Flyttr will address these urgent challenges by developing, commercializing and rapidly scaling new sustainable products and services needed in major pest and product categories.
