SIT technic would be a good alternative for dangerous pesticides considering high potential of holding pesticide residues by olive fruit and its oil, but this method needs an Island situation of the pest infestation. However the SIT techinc is so promissing that it worth to try it in some infested aread againg this dangerous pest.
