    Q
    Does Sevin Concentrate kill psyllids and leaf miners on boxwoods?
    How long does it take to kill these insects? I sprayed 4 days ago and they are still alive.
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is labeled for both psylids and leafminers.  The exact amount of time it takes to kill an insect will depend on a number of factors, such as where the insect is in its life cycle and how long it spent in contact with a treated surface.  You should start to see results in a few days, but reapplication may be necessary per the product label, especially if the infestation is severe.

    Q
    Will Sevin Concentrate kill hookworms in the soil?
    A

    Unfortunately the Sevin Concentrate is not labeled for hookworms. There is not a product on the market that is labeled or recommended for hookworms. While some insecticides that are labeled for turf or lawn infesting insect may work, there has not been enough research to add hookworms to the product labels. We recommend thatif you have pets, they be moved out of the contaminated area for at least 6 weeks (during warm spring/summer months, longer during cool winter/fall months) and all feces be removed. Keeping the animals out of the contaminated area for at least 6 weeks should help control the infestation pattern. It is also important to remove feces from the new latrine area to avoid another infestation. Another option is to remove the contaminated soil and replace if you cannot keep out for 1 year.

    Q
    Can I use Sevin Concentrate on citrus trees for spiders and other pests?
    I have a sour orange and a mandarin orange tree and both seem to be affected and one is dropping the oranges while they are very small.
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled to be used on citrus trees so we cannot recommend it for this use.  We would recommend a product with neem oil, such as Bonide Need Oil Concentrate. It is labeled for various pests on fruits, vegetables, flowers, etc.

  • Asked by Sharon from Bensalem, Pa
    04/05/2018
    Q
    How often would I apply Sevin in the yard for fleas and ticks?
    want to use the powder in yard for flea and ticks how often would I need to reapply?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled for use on lawns. You can use Sevin Granules on lawns for ticks and fleas. For fleas, you would use 4-9 lbs per 1,000 square feet. You can apply up to 3 times a year with at least 7 days between applications. Keep in mind that Sevin is just a contact kill, so it will not have residual effect for fleas, ticks, or other listed pests. For a residual granule to use instead, you could use Talstar XTRA Granules every 30-60 days. Please see our Flea Treatment Guide and Tick Treatment Guide for more tips on eradicating these pests.

    Q
    Will spraying Sevin Concentrate for fleas outdoors harm my free range chickens?

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled for fleas nor approved to be used around poultry.  Talstar P  would be a better option.  It is labeled to be used in poultry houses and chicken pens and is labeled for fleas.  Chickens must be out of the area while you apply Talstar P but can return as soon as everything is dry.
