A number of these strategies have been tested for the control of golden mussels and some of the methods tested hold promise for industrial use. Treatment strategies generally fall into proactive and reactive treatments. Proactive treatments will prevent settlement of mussels or prevent the development of adults. Reactive treatments will allow the settlement and growth of adult mussels, periodically removing settled adults. The chemicals used for both strategies are divided into nonoxidizing and oxidizing chemicals. The actual choice of chemicals and the mode of application will depend on several factors such as regulatory approval, economic viability, and preference of the individual user. abiocides achemical treatment aEcological invasion aInvasive species amolluscicides aMussels apower plants aMexilhão aMolusco aBiofouling control aBiological invasion aGolden mussel aIndustrial plants aIrrigation facilites aLimnoperna fortunei1 aOLIVEIRA, M.
