Abstract
The effect of lining snails'aquaria with different materials on efficacy of the molluscicides niclosamide and copper sulphate on Biomphalaria alexandrina snails under laboratory and semi-field conditions was studied. Under laboratory conditions, the survival rate of B. alexandrina kept in aquaria lined with cement or plastic sheets and exposed to the sub-lethal concentration(LC50) of niclosamide showed a highly significant reduction (p
