To optimize Drosophila suzukii rearing and establish mass rearing its local parasitoids, this washing method collects pupae from wheat germ diet. The diet consists of purified water (480 ml), raw wheat germ (100 g), table sugar (45 g), Brewer's yeast (35 g), and maize flour (30 g). Preparation requires stirring and boiling all ingredients for 7 minutes, then cooling to room temperature. Implementation of the method allows collecting clean pupae and compiling them into a smaller space, so it helps mass rearing D. suzukii and its parasitoids. Additionally, it could facilitate execution of other ideas with potential to control the pest, among them, the sterile insect technique and sterile insect technique + entomopathogenic fungi.

The effects of four different blanching methods - boiling water, steam, stepwise, and a mixed method microwave followed by boiling water on the texture and ascorbic acid content of frozen white asparagus were compared. The results showed that microwaving followed by boiling water yielded a more acceptable and uniform product texture, shortening blanching time and reducing ascorbic acid losses. Slow rates are the best method to thaw precoocked frozen asparagus.
