What I do now is I soak all the veggie scraps in a pigtail bucket with thiovin and a beer....let is fester for a 2 days....then throw it in the empty lot next to my house and sprinkle bait in the middle of it....it attracts the snails to an area that i can just throw gas and burn them or leave their dead bodies to keep attracting more snails that end up dying.

Thiodicarb (Thiovin/Larvin) is effective against eggs and very effective against newly hatched larvae, also. If you can directly apply thiodicarb by spraying, you will be able to kill the snails even before you would be able to see them.

It's a step worse than paraquat, for sure. Definitely not for the 3/4 pants and rubber slippers misting crews.

yeah i hear it’s pretty strong stuff, can it be used watered down?

I use it at the label dilution rate. Calm day, coarse spray, low pressure. Organic vapor respirator, goggles, rubber boots, long pants and sleeves.

Its me
The short pants, rubber slippers, no gloves, no mask, no goggles guy

But i usually just spray fungicides and some instecticides
Evenings only when the breeze ease up, heavy spray.

I usually hire a guy to do the heavy/deadly stuff (paraquat, 2,4-d, swiper etc)
I feel i go give him a wuk to spray that yes.

[Chimera]

I does spray everything myself....

Recently I start to wear rubber boots and I buy a pair of real nice gloves in bhagwansingh that chemical resistant that I using for everything.....

But that thiovin i firetruck up myself the other day....

I usually spray low and thick when it have no breeze but some blow back on me and for the rest of the day it was like my face was numbing up on me and I wasn't feeling anything.

Since then I buy back filters for my full face respirator and using that when I hadda spray thiovin

[j.o.e]

Glad I read this. Short pants and sneakers sprayer here. Will use it to set trap on land next door. Don’t want to commit to all that equipment. Tbh don’t even want to spray yard if it so dangerous with family around

This will make the problem worse in the long run. I thought the cobra problem was more well known. Smartmen going to breed snails to collect bounty. Then when the government catches on and scrap the program, the smartmen going to release the snails, making the problem far worse than it was originally.

"Buying african snail... african snail buying.."

[pugboy]

they need to pass a law banning cultivation growing of them in conjunction to the collection paybacks
otherwise the speed at which they multiply makes it too easy for scamps to grow in any lil empty lot

[sMASH]

So u mean, I could drive in the the forest a 20 mins, clear diwn some spots that nobody use, put down some cabbage lettuce any ting they eat, and put down a population there that nobody will no about?
And Jess pass in every month with a few crocus bag?

[pugboy]

wait til them ghost gang criminals jump on this gold mine

[redmanjp]

why they didn't fine the person who brought it in in the first place?

[pugboy]

too late for that
although everybody in alyce glen know the italian guy

why they didn't fine the person who brought it in in the first place?

[Rovin]

suppose ppl really go looking all over to collect snails like dem pipers & hustlers who might use their bare hands to pick it up & possibly spread meningitis from humans to humans

did d ministry get proper advice on this & think it through ? ...
