    Q
    Is Sevin Concentrate safe to spray where free range chickens run?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled to be used in poultry houses or chicken pens, only fruit trees, ornamentals, vegetable gardens, shrubs, flowers, outdoor insect perimeter control in residential areas. 

    Talstar P is labeled to be used in poultry houses and chicken pens so it should not harm your chickens. You must make sure your chickens are out of the area while you apply Talstar P and then they can return to the area as soon as it is dry.

    Q
    Is Sevin Concentrate that was mixed with water and sitting for a few months still good?
    Says not to use on anything flowering as it will kill bees in large numbers. All these here say will not harm bees and that you can use on veggies. Not mine? I have an old green plastic container of Sevin, why don't I see my bottle for sale here?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate should be used within 24 hours of mixing with water.  The only green labeled Sevin we carry is the professional grade PROKoZ Sevin SL Carbaryl Insecticide, if this is not the one you have we cannot comment on the use of it or precautions but the PROKoZ states on the label: BEE CAUTION: MAY KILL HONEYBEES IN SUBSTANTIAL NUMBERS.

    Q
    Does Sevin Concentrate kill lizards?
    A

    No, Sevin Concentrate is not labeled to kill lizards. We do know of any products that are made to harm lizards. We would recommend using a general insecticide, such as Suspend SC. This will kill their food source and help with keeping the lizards out of the treated area. Glue boards can also be used to catch them as well.

    Q
    Will Sevin Kill Yellowheaded Spruce Sawflies on my Norway Spruce Trees without damaging the trees?
    A

    Yes, you can use Sevin Concentrate as a topical spray on spruce or other ornamentals for sawfly treatment. According to the product label, you should apply 1.5 fl. oz. of product per gallon of water and spray upper and lower leaf surfaces and small trunks, stems and twigs to the point of runoff where pests appear. Repeat applications as necessary up to a total of four times per year for trees and six times per year for ornamental shrubs and flowers, but not more than once every seven days.

    We would also recommend using a systemic insecticide in the late Spring or early Summer for these pests, such as Fertilome Tree and Shrub Systemic Insect Drench.

    Q
    Will Sevin Concentrate kill grass root eating worms 2-3 inched below the soil surface?
    A

    While Sevin Concentrate is labeled for armyworms and cutworms, it will not work for grubs.  It is important to know exactly what type of worm you are dealing with to be able to confirm if it will work for them.  If you are able to get a picture of the worm and email it to us at [email protected] , we can try to assist in identifying the pest.  We will say that Sevin is a not a systemic so it is not absorbed by grass for those pests that feed on the roots.
