Florida Citrus Snail Management

A new species of snail has emerged for citrus growers in Florida (Bulimulus bonariensis). These snails were found in citrus groves in late April to early May with the smallest size being 3 millimeters, which makes them difficult to detect when at a young age. There are currently 6 baits and one liquid molluscicide registered to use on snails in citrus groves, and in a study, all of these methods were found to be effective in killing B. bonariensis.
