Common Mixtures | Metaldehyde is most commonly used as a single active ingredient, but it may also be found in mixtures with other molluscicides like methiocarb or bittering agents to reduce accidental ingestion. Some commercial formulations include additives for improved palatability and weather resistance. |
Mode of Action | Metaldehyde acts as a contact and stomach poison. It disrupts the mucus-producing cells in mollusks, leading to excessive mucus secretion, dehydration, and ultimately death. It also affects the central nervous system of snails and slugs, causing paralysis and death. |
Target Pests | Metaldehyde is mainly used to control terrestrial mollusks, particularly slugs and snails. These pests are common in moist agricultural environments and are known for damaging leaves, stems, and seedlings. |
Crops | Metaldehyde is applied on a wide range of crops including vegetables (e.g., lettuce, cabbage), fruits (e.g., strawberries, citrus), ornamentals, cereals, and oilseeds. It is often used in outdoor fields, greenhouses, and nurseries. |
