Abstract:
Objective To investigate the molluscicidal effect of 5%niclosamide ethanolamine granules against Oncomela-nia hupensis in a marshland field. Methods The 5%niclosamide ethanolamine granules were sprayed at a dose of 40 g/m2 on 3 snail-breeding marshlands in Yangzhong City of Jiangsu Province to assess its field molluscicidal actions while 26%suspension concentrate of metaldehyde and niclosamide MNSC) at a dose of 4 g/m2 and fresh water served as controls. Results After seven days spraying, 5%niclosamide ethanolamine granules resulted in a of snail mortal85.42%ity while the mortality rates of snails were 82.35% and 2.86% in the MNSC and water control groups respectively. Conclusion 5% niclosamide ethanol-amine granules exhibit a high molluscicidal activity which is suitable to be used in the mashland.
