The present disclosure relates to the technical field of alien invasive species control, in particular to use of 4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol in killing or controlling Pomacea canaliculata, a method for killing or controlling the Pomacea canaliculata, and a molluscicide. The present disclosure provides use of 4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol in killing or controlling Pomacea canaliculata. The 4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol can effectively control the Pomacea canaliculata with a low cost. In the present disclosure, the results of examples show that: the 4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol has an obvious killing effect on the Pomacea canaliculata, showing a control effect comparable to that of niclosamide, a commonly-used molluscicide for killing the Pomacea canaliculata.

A composition is disclosed including combining a carbonate or bicarbonate compound, an acid, a biostimulant, a nutrient, and a pesticide. The composition may be processed into a tablet, powder, meal, pellets, or granules and produce effervescence when a liquid, such as water or a water-based liquid is mixed with the composition.

Compounds of the formula (I) wherein the substituents are as defined in claim 1. Furthermore, the present invention relates to agrochemical compositions which comprise compounds of formula (I), to preparation of these compositions, and to the use of the compounds or compositions in agriculture or horticulture for combating, preventing or controlling animal pests, including arthropods and in particular insects, nematodes, molluscs or representatives of the order Acarina.

The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for inducing encystment of and/or stabilising ciliate cells. In particular, the present disclosure relates to polymers and polymeric solutions, including hydrocolloids, which may be used to induce encystment of trophont ciliate cells to form encysted ciliate cells and/or stabilise encysted cells. The present disclosure also relates to methods of infecting and/or colonising molluscs with the compositions and ciliates described herein.
