Salinas, California firm founded in 2016 that releases beneficial insects over crops from drone-mounted dispensers, operating in the US and Australia.
Parabug is an agricultural drone-services company that uses drones to apply beneficial insects as biological pest control, an approach it calls biocontrol by drone. The company was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Salinas, California. Founder and President Chandler Bennett began developing the concept while a student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and Jaclyn Bennett is the company's general manager.
Parabug's system is a proprietary release mechanism that mounts on off-the-shelf agricultural drones. It maps fields, then distributes predatory insects over target areas as part of growers' integrated pest management programmes, with the aim of reducing chemical pesticide use. The US Highbush Blueberry Council has featured the company's work in blueberry production. It has operations across the United States and Australia.
