6% Metaldehyde GR

Product Performance

When snails ingest or come into contact with this pesticide, a large amount of acetylcholinesterase is released in their bodies, which destroys the special mucus within the snail bodies. This causes the snails to dehydrate rapidly, become paralyzed neurologically, and secrete mucus. Due to the massive loss of body fluids and cell damage, the snails will be poisoned and die within a short time. It can be used to control *Pomacea canaliculata* in rice fields.

Usage Technical Requirements

1. Apply the pesticide during the peak occurrence period of *Pomacea canaliculata* in rice fields. It is best to apply the granules in the afternoon on sunny days.

2. Maintain a water layer of 3 - 5 cm deep during the pesticide - application period.

3. If heavy rain occurs after application and the pesticide granules are washed into the soil, the efficacy will be reduced, and re - application may be necessary. Light rain has little impact on the efficacy.
