Anatomy

''Cyclops'' individuals may range from ½–5 mm long and are clearly divided into two sections. The broadly oval front section comprises the head and the first five thoracic segments. The hind part is considerably slimmer and is made up of the sixth thoracic segment and the four legless pleonic segments. Two caudal appendages project from the rear. Although they may be difficult to observe, ''Cyclops'' has five pairs of legs. The long first antennae, two in number, are used by the males for gripping the females during mating. Afterwards, the female carries the eggs in two small sacs on her body. The larvae, or nauplii, are free-swimming and unsegmented.

Control methods

Cyclops can be controlled using physical, chemical, biological and engineering methods.

Physical

Straining of water through piece of fine cloth is sufficient to remove ''Cyclops''. It can also be killed by boiling water, as it is easily killed by heat at 60 °C.
