The present invention relates to a molluscicide composition having a form of food bait and comprising at least one molluscicidal agent. In order to improve efficacy and ecological properties of a molluscicide it further comprises humic acid. The invention also relates to a method of preparing such a composition, a molluscicide dosage form comprising such a composition, as well as a method and use of such a molluscicide composition or a molluscicide dosage form in combating molluscs for an extended period in agricultural, horticultural and/or garden environments.

A molluscicidal particle formed of a solid including at least one metallic compound, including at least one metal selected from the group formed by iron, copper, zinc and aluminum, the solid being suitable for use as an ingested poison for harmful molluscs. The solid includes metaldehyde in a proportion which can vary towards the interior of the solid.

A composition and methods of using the composition for the control of mollusks are provided, which include an effective amount of one or more isolated Phasmarhabditis nematodes, wherein at least one of the isolated nematodes is P. californica, P. papillosa or P. hermaphrodita, and wherein the P. hermaphrodita does not comprise Moraxella osloensis.

The use of certain pesticides for protecting plants, the plant propagation material thereof, or soil or water, in which the plants are growing, against the attack or infestation by gastropods is described. Furthermore, a method for controlling gastropods is disclosed, the method comprising contacting the gastropods or their food supply, habitat or breeding ground, or plants or plant propagation material thereof, or soil or water, where the gastropods are present or may occur, with a molluscicidally effective amount of a pesticide. A bait composition is also provided, comprising a pesticide, a mollusc attractant, and optionally at least one further additive.
