Abstract | ||||
Land snails are becoming a serious agricultural animal pests In Egypt especially in northern coastal areas. They attack numerous 0; chard trees, field and vegetable crops as well as ornamental plants, causinq great damage to all plant parts including fruits. The injured plants may intensely recompile the damaged parts and the yield of crops seems not to be affected, but at least the quality was reduced so that the vegetable crops gOI poorer marketing ralings and was reduced in value (El-Okda, 1980 and Nakhla et et 1993). Most molluscicdes against terrestrial gastropods more usually deployed in baits ( Barker. 2002). Bait technique is more suitable for reducing environmental pollution. moreover simple for use, focal treatment not area wide. thus it is usually low costly. The present study aim to evaluate the rnouuscrctcai activity of certain pesticldes againsl Mcartusiana snails under laboratory and field condiuons | ||||
