Sevin Concentrate should not be exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures. You will want to store in a cool, dry place for the best shelf life from date of purchase (about 3 years). Once mixed with water, the finished solution should be used within 24 hours of mixing.
Sevin Concentrate is labeled for wasps and can be used in and around flower beds and in your lawn. The mixing rate is 3 fl oz per gallon.
Sevin Concentrate should not clog up hose end sprayers, if they are cleaned after every use. We have just added a new hose end sprayer the Chapin 6005. This hose end sprayer can spray liquid and dilute water soluble powders without issue.
For best results, you should apply Sevin Concentrate at least 24 hours before you are expecting any rain. After that point, it will be rainfast and you will not need to reapply.

Sevin Concentrate is labeled for eradicating leafhoppers on fruit trees, ornamentals, vegetable gardens, shrubs, and flowers.
Unless the bird consumes Sevin Concentrate directly, it would not be affected. For there to be even a chance of a bird or other animal being affected by Sevin, it would have to eat at least its weight in insects that have died from it.
Sevin Concentrate should be applied when the animals are not present until the application is completely dry.
Sevin Concentrate is labeled to kill squash bugs, but it will not kill their eggs. Most insecticides are not able to penetrate eggs so they will only kill insects after they have hatched.
Sevin Concentrate is labeled to be used outdoors only. For ants indoors, we would recommend using something like Phantom Aerosol. This can be sprayed around the baseboards, cracks and crevices, void treatment where pests harbor, nest, trail, run, and/or breed or hide. Treat into voids or to surfaces beneath cabinets, furniture, spaces between equipment, expansion joints, surfaces behind sinks, floor drains (to sewers), lockers, and water pipes.

You can find this chart on the product label. You may also contact GardenTech at 888-558-1990 for further advice about the beans.
Sevin Concentrate will kill many types of adult beetles, but it will not treat the larvae or grubs. We would recommend using a systemic product earlier in the season before egg hatch for the best results, such as Merit Insecticide Granules. If you currently are seeing grub/larvae damage, then Dylox is the curative treatment that works right away on these pests.
