Dr. Thomas Kollars, Chief Scientific Advisor for MIT Holding, Inc., Receives Department of Defense Results of the ProVector BtTM Mosquito Control Device

Business Wire, Feb 11, 2009

SAVANNAH, Ga. -- In blind trials conducted by the Department of Defense, the ProVector Bt(TM)killed 50 to 100% of the mosquitoes that transmit malaria and dengue within days. The ProVector Bt was also recently validated by Georgia Southern University. Dr. Kollars' work in developing the ProVector Bt formula is unique in that it is the first time anyone has been able to get mature mosquitoes to ingest and die from Bacillus thurengiensis (Bt), a safe biopesticide. Instead of spraying pesticides in the environment, the mosquitoes are attracted to the ProVector Bt and consume the formulation and die. It is a GREEN technology and is safe to use indoors and outdoors to kill mosquitoes, and it is harmless to pets, people and the environment. "It is quite a breakthrough...Dr. Kollars' finding is so interesting and important," said Dr. Margalit, the scientist who discovered Bt in the 1980s.

MIT Holding is looking for international distributors for the ProVector(TM) Bt. If you are interested in further information you can contact us at (912) 925-1905 or visit our website www.mitholding.com.
