| Abstract | ||
| The effect of attractive materials and several application control methods of poisonous baits on the efficacy of Agrinate and Gastrotox against Monacha cartusiana snail were studied under field conditions. Results revealed that sugarcane syrup had the upper hand in increasing reduction percentages of M. cartusiana followed by (mixture of sugarcane syrup with yeast) and Birell syrup (barley syrup) while the yeast alone had the lowest reduction percentage. Regarding to the evaluation of three application control methods of poisonous baits for (Gastrotox and Agrinate) it gave different results. The hand sowing of Gastrotox is the best method followed by stack under plant while application on plastic pieces has the lowest reduction percentages. Conversely, application of Agrinate on plastic pieces gave the highest reduction percentage while hand sowing was the lowest one. Finally it cloud be recommended that application of Agrinate (prepared bait) on plastic pieces and hand sowing of Gastrotox (ready baits)were the best methods for controlling land snail under field conditions. | ||
