Camellia Oleifera has the special characteristic for golden apple snail because it’s high toxicity, specific performance to the target mollusk, convenience to prepare, and leaving no residuals in the environment. The extract of this plant has been applied for the static aquatic toxicology technique within 48 hours was performed in this experiment.
