What is the role of piscicides?

  1. Control of invasive plant species

  2. Management of pest fish

  3. Management of rodent populations

  4. Enhancement of plant growth

The correct answer is: Management of pest fish

Piscicides are toxic substances used for controlling or eliminating pest fish in a given habitat. This means their role is not related to the other options provided. Option A is incorrect because piscides do not have any impact on invasive plant species. Similarly, option C is incorrect because piscices are not used for managing rodent populations. Option D is incorrect because piscicides are not used to enhance plant growth but rather they are used to eliminate or reduce pest fish populations. Therefore, option B is the best answer as it correctly describes the role of piscicides.
