TyraTech, an eco-technology firm based in Florida, has selected Morrisville, North Carolina, for a headquarters relocation. The company will bring 105 jobs to the area.

"TyraTech is excited about the pending move to the Research Triangle Park area and specifically Morrisville," said Alan Reade, executive chairman for TyraTech. "One of the key drivers to make the move to the Triangle area are the educational institutions and universities, especially NC State, which has very strong programs in entomology and veterinary sciences that we hope to draw upon as we expand."

TyraTech produces plant-based pest and parasite solutions that are safe for humans, animals, and the environment. The company is currently researching foods to control human intestinal parasites, pest control for homes and businesses, and parasite controls for pets.
