    Q
    Wil Sevin Concentrate kill eggs and termites? How much per gal of water and how long does it take?
    I plan on pouring it down a hole in middle of tree.
    A

    Sevin Concentrate will kill the adult termites that are sprayed with the product. It will not replace a termite soil treatment around the perimeter of the structure. There are products that you can use to treat in the tree directly. Just keep in mind that termites are there because the tree is already dead or dying, so be sure to take down dead trees before they cause other damage. You could use Alpine Ant and Termite Foam to spot treat exactly where the galleries are in the tree. This product has a foaming agent to help coat the inside of any voids. Alternatively, you could use Dominion 2L as a spray, again treating inside the galleries directly. We would recommend using a termiticide like Taurus SC against the foundation in a trench or drilled holes (where there is concrete).  You can find more information on doing a complete treatment for termites in our Termite Control Guide

    Q
    How much Sevin Concentrate do I mix with one gallon of water for drenching potted petunia plants?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is a liquid concentrate that you dilute with water. It is not labeled for drenching or for use on houseplants or other containerized plants. If you need a product for containerized plants to treat insects like aphids, mealybugs, etc., then you can use Bonide Systemic Granules instead.

    Can Sevin Concentrate be used as a soil drench for insects that are eating my hostas and other plants?

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled to be applied via soil drench. This product must be sprayed onto the plants. The new active ingredient of Zeta-Cypermethrin allows it to kill upon contact and see visible results within minutes, while having a residual kill of up to 3 months.
