Killing individual ones does nothing.
You'll need to treat the entire area with a metaldehyde based bait.*KRONIK* wrote:Boi88sins wrote:Gee hee fyaahz bai
Fuh real, bun dat. Bleach and salt may not kill all the eggs
I say if i find more
I go have to do that
But i monitoring to see if more around
I hoping this was an isolated incident

they will come
Well yesPhone Surgeon wrote:the bait doesnt dry them up, it kills them and eventually ants will eat them if there are ants or they otherwise decay and smell terrible

Yeah, you go ahead and do that, you'll just end up dispersing eggs over a wider area.

So I reach the last resort and went to buy the recommended Ministry of Agriculture poison thiodicarb (Thiovin) to spray. $110 for 500ml. Extremely toxic. The bottle even has the antidote printed on it to tell the doctor and it says to keep locked away when not using. Had to wear mask and gloves because of it's toxicity, extremely noxious deadly smell. Stripped down and bathe and washed my clothes after.
Toxicity
In acute toxicity testing, thiodicarb places in Toxicity Category I (the highest toxicity category out of four) via the oral route and Toxicity Category II via the inhalation route.This thing is so toxic that you need a license to buy it as a farmer in USA and "there are no homeowner uses." Probable human carcinogen B2 classification.
I had to do this because it's obvious that the eggs and reproduction rates could not be controlled. Slug bait/iron phosphate, etc. would only just kill the snail but not the eggs and 15 days later same problem. Thiodicarb is primarily a pesticide. Anyway, the instructions were 2 tablespoons per gallon of water, but I only had a 1L sprayer thing so I used 1 tablespoon. Spray and snail death within minutes. They just falling down from the wall and dying. I tried to get most places in my yard, anywhere with moisture, around plant roots, near and around the water tanks, inside the banana and sugar-cane patch.... and hope that it does its job with the eggs and see the results within 2 weeks.
Again, this chemical is so toxic that there is a warning in the literature that 48 hours must pass before entering sprayed area without protective clothing and gear. It kills insects, fish and mammals. I would not recommend anyone touching this poison unless it's the last resort.
Nah....within 2 or 3 seconds of a snail touching or eating the pellet...they die...pugboy wrote:you mixed twice as strong, a gallon is 3.8 liters approx 4, so you only needed 1/2tbsp
your next problem might be the smell of rotting snails.
what type of land is your infestation ? open or very bushy for them to hide undergrowth ?
some farmers i speak to say you put pellets every few days to let them die off,
a waste to just keep putting pellets everyday as same snail might be eating all the pellets in one night.maj. tom wrote:Well the snails reach infestation stage in my land, salt and burning with gas reaching nowhere.
