| Abstract | ||
| The molluscicidal efficacy of some certain and of their mixtures were pesticides laboratory and field evaluated under both conditions. Tested compounds and mixtures have been locally formulated using wheat bran carrier. All baits contained 2% Toxicity obtained by methomyl was selected as blue dye. 2% wheat bran bait terrestrial as reference molluscicide. The data obtained under laboratory Eubania and field conditions against brown snail snail Theba sp. showed vermeculata and white sensitive against that: white snails tested compounds especially after one treatment. Addition of water soluble were day of toxicants to 1% methomyl bait was unable to enhance the molluscicidal activity. While selective herbicide a moderate toxicity against (Atrazine) caused nonselective herbicide (both snails, the against used snails. The paraquat) was non-toxic same trend was obtained with tomarin rodenticide and copper fungicide compounds such as copper There was a high oxychloride and cuprosan. degree of agreeability between the results both field laboratory and obtained under conditions. Finally methomyl locally formulated bran baits possess the same degree of toxicity against used snails as commercial recommended molluscicide (Limacir). | ||
