Objective To evaluate the effects of 3 molluscicides namely 5%niclosamide ethanolamine granules,4%“Luo-wei”(Tea-seed distilled saponins,TDS)and 50%wettable powder of niclosamide ethanolamine salt(WPN)by spraying and pou-drage methods in marshland and lake regions in dry season. Methods An environment with a high snail density was chosen as the experimental field,then the spraying and poudrage experiments were carried out in the field to assess the molluscicidal effects of 5%niclosamide ethanolamine granules,TDS and WPN delivered by spraying and poudrage methods with a concentration of 30, 6 and 2 g/m2,respectively,and the molluscicidal effects of the 3 drugs by the two methods were evaluated and compared in differ-ent time. Results After the delivery for 15 d,the adjusted snail death rates of the 5%niclosamide ethanolamine granules,TDS and WPN in the spraying experiment were 79.00%,82.29%and 84.83%,respectively,and those in the poudrage experiments were 97.42%,95.27% and 96.62%,respectively. Conclusion The molluscicidal effect of poudrage method is better than the spraying method,and the former is worthy of further extension and application in the marshland in dry season.
