An integrated control of Galba truncatula by the use of a molluscicide (CuCl2) at low doses (0.1 mg/L) in March-April and the introduction of carnivorous snails (Zonitoides nitidus) in June-July was applied since the 1990s in 134 natural watercress beds on acid soils. Several precautions to avoid environmental risks and eventual consequences on public health were also applied. At the end of the first year of control, the elimination of Galba truncatula from the 134 watercress beds and that of Omphiscola glabra from 9 water holes (of the 11 colonized by this lymnaeid) were noted. Two years of control were necessary to eradicate O. glabra from the other two beds. Low concentrations of copper in watercress originating from 5 beds were noted during the first year after control. Several beds were recolonized by lymnaeids from the second year post-treatment. However, an epidemiological surveillance of these beds performed during years following snail control did not show any recontamination of watercress by metacercariae of Fasciola hepatica. This simple method must be proposed to the owners of natural watercress beds when they refuse to destroy beds in spite of the detection of one or several cases of human fasciolosis among their family and their relations.
