Abstract:
     The invention provides a method of controlling the spread of bilharziasis, which is based on increasing the concentration of ferrous iron in the living environment of Oncomelania to make the Oncomelania avoid invasion from Japanese schistosome miracidium and the Oncomelania not to infect schitosome, and finally make the Oncomelania not produce cercaria harming human healthy. The specific method of increasing the concentration of ferrous iron in the living environment of Oncomelania is: add ferrous sulfate salt to the environment of Oncomelania, for example, ammonium ferrous sulphate. Make ammonium ferrous sulphate absorbed to slow release carriers, and dispense said slow release carrier with ammonium ferrous sulphate to the area with Oncomelania. Said slow release carrier could be gypsum block. At the same time, said invention provides an agent for controlling the spread of bilharziasis, which could release ferrous iron, for example, ammonium ferrous sulphate.
