Israel Bred This Instead of Using Pesticides

Israel Bred This Instead of Using Pesticides How Israel Built a Secret Peace Treaty With Owls Why Israel Bred 1,000,000 Spiders Inside a Bomb Shelter In 1983, inside a single farming kibbutz in northern Israel, two completely unrelated groups of people began breeding predators. One bred barn owls. The other bred millions of predatory spiders in a bomb shelter. Neither knew it at the time, but they were about to trigger a biological megaproject that would spread to 50 countries, replace millions of dollars of toxic pesticide, and quietly become a working mechanism for geopolitical peace treaties. In this documentary, we break down the engineering and biological triage of Israel's pest control programs. Discover how barn owls use asymmetrical ears to triangulate rodents in total darkness, how the mass breeding of Phytoseiulus persimilis predatory mites cut global pesticide use by 80%, and how the sterile insect technique was literally written into the 1994 Israel-Jordan peace treaty.
