CONSTITUTION:A mat containing at least one copper compound selected from basic copper chloride, basic copper sulfate, 8-hydroxyquinoline copper, nonyl phenyl sulfonic acid copper salt, dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid copper salt, basic copper carbonate and copper chloride as active ingredients is spread on the bottom of a pot or under the pot to economically, simply and perfectly control land Gastropoda such as snails and slugs living on the bottom of the pot, under the pot or around the pot without polluting the periphery of the pot. The compound is odorless and does not exert any damage to human bodies.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) This invention causes serious damage in the field of agriculture and horticulture;
The present invention relates to a simple and complete method for controlling terrestrial gastropods, which are important nuisance pests in ordinary households.

(Prior Art) Land-dwelling gastropods such as snails, slugs, and black slugs are causing damage to agricultural crops, and the damage is increasing. In particular, these gastropods tend to hide at the bottom of potted vegetables and flower petals. As a result, they suffer from severe feeding damage, and in general households, they are often brought indoors with potted plants, making them a problem as unpleasant pests.

Conventionally, to control terrestrial gastropods, various active ingredients have been made into oils, emulsions, granules, powders, poison baits, etc., and sprayed on the soil and floor surfaces in areas where terrestrial gastropods are likely to appear. The main methods of control have been to spray or paint the insects, or to trap and kill them using attractants.

However, conventional coating and spraying of oils, emulsions, granules, and powders have not been able to adequately control terrestrial gastropods hiding at the bottom of pots because the chemicals do not come into direct contact with them. In addition, the use of poisonous baits and attractants requires skill in selecting the location where the chemicals are applied, and the effects are insufficient unless the chemicals are applied properly. However, these pest control methods require the treatment of chemicals over a wide area around the flowerpot, which causes problems such as staining surrounding equipment, damaging the landscape, and emitting odors, and is economically and labor-intensive. There was also a lot of waste.

On the other hand, various inorganic steels or organic copper compounds used in the present invention are described in, for example, the 140th to
It is described on page 146 and is widely used as a fungicide for controlling diseases of vegetables and fruit trees. In addition, these compounds are known as jumbo snail control agents (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 6
No. 2-120305).

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Until now, there has been no effective means for easily controlling terrestrial gastropods. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a simple and complete method for controlling terrestrial gastropods hiding at the bottom of flowerpots.

(Means for Solving the Problem) The present inventors have conducted research on a method for controlling terrestrial gastropods hiding at the bottom of flower pots without causing problems in terms of labor, economy, and contamination of surrounding areas. Layered.

As a result, basic copper chloride, basic WLM copper, 8-oxyquinoline copper, copper nonylphenol sulfonate, copper dodecylbenzenesulfonate, basic copper carbonate, and copper chloride were found to be lethal to terrestrial gastropods. It was discovered that scales have shellfish or repellent action and can effectively control them.

Furthermore, the inventors have discovered that terrestrial gastropods can be easily and economically controlled by placing a mat containing these compounds on the bottom or under a flower pot, and have completed the present invention.

The present invention will be explained in detail below.

It is thought that each compound used in the present invention acts directly or indirectly on terrestrial gastropods, inhibits their physiological effects, and exhibits molluscicidal or repellent activity.

That is, when terrestrial gastropods come into contact with these compounds,
It exhibits repellent behavior and does not invade treated areas of the compound.

Furthermore, if terrestrial gastropods come into contact with these compounds for a long period of time, they will develop a shellfishing effect and die.

In the present invention, when planting a plant in a pot, a mat containing these compounds is placed at the bottom of the pot. To prevent the invasion of gastropods and to simply and completely control hidden gastropods.

The mat used in the present invention may include acrylic plates, rubber plates, glass plates, etc., in addition to mantles made of porous substrates such as nonwoven fabric, paper, 7-ohm urethane, wood, unglazed ceramics, slate, and plasterboard. can. These substrates are cut by a conventional method into a size and shape comparable to the bottom of a flower pot, and contain at least one compound used in the present invention inside or on the surface thereof.

The amount of the compound contained in the mat is 0-1-100 g/m', preferably 0.5-5
0g/m".

The method of incorporating the drug into the mat is by directly dissolving the compound in a solvent, or by using an aquarium prepared by a conventional method.
A powder, emulsion, or flowable agent directly or suspended in water is sprayed, applied, impregnated, or mixed and deposited on a mat substrate.

In this case, the compound used in the present invention may be microencapsulated or clathrated using known techniques. In addition to the compounds used in the present invention, known fungicides, fungicides, insecticides, etc. can also be used.

Next, examples of the present invention will be shown.

(Example 1) Basic copper chloride, basic copper sulfate, 8-oxyquinoline network,
80 weight x km of each of basic copper chloride and copper chloride, 2 parts by weight of polyethylene nonylphenyl ether, 2 parts by weight of white carbon, and 16 parts by weight of finely powdered clay are homogeneously ground and mixed to obtain each irrigation agent. Each of these irrigation agents was dissolved in tap water to prepare a medicinal solution with a predetermined concentration so as to have the amount shown in Table 1. Three sheets of filter paper with a diameter of 9 cm and a thickness of 0.39 mm were stacked, and 5jIQ of the chemical solution was dropped onto the sheets to prepare a pest control mat. This mat was placed on the ground outdoors, and a 12 cm diameter plastic pot containing cabbage was placed on top of the mat. After that, 1 day later, 7 days later, 14 days later, 21 days later
After 1 day, 28 days and 35 days, the number of slugs hiding in the bottom of the pot was investigated.

This test was conducted in five consecutive series and the average value was determined.

The results are shown in Table 1.
