Does this even sound right numbers-wise?

On Tuesday, officials in the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District (FKMCD) gave final approval to release 750 million of the modified mosquitoes over a two-year period.

That would mean approx. 1M mosquitoes per day by this organization.

Who is cultivating (?) or growing 1M mosquitoes per day. Isn't that like a pickup truck bed cubed size of mosquitoes, every day?

Or is it being done across many, many sites?
