Abstract
Milkfish pond owners would be relieved to know that an alternative to Brestan, Aquatin, and Telustan — the banned organotin pesticides that have been used by fishfarmers to control mud snails in brackishwater ponds — is on its final stages of field trial. The alternative is a metaldehyde formulation (10% active ingredient). According to AQD Scientist Dr. Relicardo Coloso, metaldehyde is a highly selective molluscicide.
