Which of the following is NOT a type of pesticide discussed?

Fungicides are indeed a recognized type of pesticide. They are specifically formulated to control fungal diseases that can afflict plants, ensuring healthier crops and preventing the spread of harmful fungi in agricultural and horticultural settings.

In contrast, nematicides target nematodes, which are microscopic roundworms that can cause significant damage to plant roots. Miticides are used to manage mite populations, particularly harmful spider mites that affect various crops. Molluscicides, on the other hand, focus on controlling mollusks such as snails and slugs, which can damage plants and spread diseases.

Since fungicides are an established category within the broader classification of pesticides, identifying them as NOT a type of pesticide is incorrect. Therefore, the correct identification would point to another category that does not belong to commonly known pesticide types discussed.
