The research were conducted to evaluate various bait attractant for eco friendly trapping of giant African snail (Achatina fulica)” at Department of Entomology, College of Agriculture, VNMKV, Parbhani during 2023 and 2024 under field conditions. Among all the evaluated treatments, Moringa + jaggery (200g) + water (200ml) was found the most effective bait attractant where maximum number of snails attracted were 26.34 and highest per cent of 17.56% after twelve hours of treatment. And minimum number of snails attracted to Citrus fruit waste were 6.83 and lowest per cent of 4.46% after twelve hours of treatment. The overall results of two years shown that Moringa + jaggery (200g) + water (200ml) was found to be the most effective attractant for attracting and trapping of giant Africa snail in field.
