Subj: RE: Insect Removal
Admiral,
Objection raised by Captain Tyrstoc to removal and/or extermination is logical. Though Prime Directive implications are unlikely, general conduct standards with regard to intelligent life may apply.
Arrange scientific study to assess nature and sentience of lifeform before proceeding with original plans.
