MICROWAVE ENERGY AGAINST SLUGS’ EGGS
CONCLUSION • Practical application of MW energy for field control
of soil pests is usually subjected to criticism in the
literature becouse of high costs of energy and
equipment, and problems of safety for operating
personnel.
• MW treatments required for effective control of
slugs’ eggs are also lethal to beneficial
invertebrates like earthworms.
• Application of MW energy for control of slugs’
eggs is not feasible in the field.

Preparing the extracts for testing:
Plants were collected and identified
Different parts of the plants were separated:
Rhizomes Leaves Fruits

Testing the plants:
5 doses of the extract and one control. The doses were arranged in a ten-fold geometric series
3 replicates per dose
3 to 5 eggs per replicate
1 ml of extract was applied to each dish
After dry were remoistened with 1 ml of water

When apply the slug
eggs killer on field?
After harvest
Between two ploughing
Repeat the treatment before
sowing
Other Molluscicide will be
necessary to apply as the
vegetables are growing
What we manage with that?
• Destroy the slug eggs
• Kill the remaining slugs
• Crops free of land snails
