- pvaldes 5y ago> Snails are part of lifecycle of parasite that is spreading malaria. Hum... That claim sounds really strange to me. Plasmodium falciparum cycle has been thoroughly studied and it never mentions a snail. I think that you are confusing it with other organisms like Schistosoma (not even in the same Kingdom), but maybe is a recent discovery and I could be wrong. Can you share a link?
- Bobylonian 5y agoSadly, no. The one that I got information about those snails was YT video about eradicating some specific snails, to disrupt lifecycle of mosquitoes, as their larvae was living in these snails. I kinda feel regret(on other hand my regret is memory of having this extra information) that I have not saved link, because it was very long and very informative video and showed all the different issues, to do that task. I would highly recommend it to watch it, but you have to find it by yourself - may the RNG of YT is on your side in this task.
