A laboratory experiment had been conducted to throw some light on the ovicidal activity against Eobania vermiculata (Muller) snail using the following materials : 1- vegetable oils (cotton seed oil (60% EC), citronella oil (87% EC) and camphor oil (30%EC); 2- Petroleum oils (CAPL1, CAPL2, and solar (96.6% EC).); 3Fertilizers (Ammonium nitrate, potassium sulphate, urea and cuppric acetate); 4- -Pesticides: copper hydroxide (Champion) and carbofuran (Furan); 5- Azadirachta indica (A. juss) extracts. The results obtained indicated that solar (EC),. Camphor oil (EC), ammonium nitrate, ethanol extract of A.indica leaf (20% SL) and Furan were the most effective materials and could be arranged descendingly according to their LC50 values as follows: Furan ethanol extract of A.indica leaf (20%SL), camphor oil, ammonium nitrate and solar, the corresponding LC50 values were 77.544, 150.335,319.216,475.4 and 1765.446ppm, respectively.
