This study was conducted to compare the effects of different boton (Barringtonia asiatica) products as a molluscicide. Specifically, the study aimed to determine the percent mortality of boton seed extract, pellet and powder according to time elapsed in order to determine which among the different boton formulations has the highest effect on golden apple snail mortality; and to determine the significant difference between the boton seed (Barringtonia asiatica) xiii extract, pellet and powder as molluscicide against golden apple snail. Complete Randomized Design (CRD) was employed, and Statistical Tool Agricultural Research (STAR) was used to analyzed the gathered data. Comparison among means was done using Least Significant Differences (LSD). The study revealed that 20 grams of boton seed powder had a highly significant effect on GAS mortality with a 100% mortality rate after nine hours of application.
