  • Asked by Patricia from Hamilton

    Q
    Will liquid Sevin kill European Hornets on lilac bush?
    I have an infestation of European Hornets on my lilac bush and they are girding the branches and killing the bush. If I spray liquid Sevin at their chew sites, will it kill them? Is Sevin systemic, i.e. will they take it back to their nest and kill other hornets?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled for hornets or other stinging insects so would not be recommended.  It is not systemic and would not be carried back to any nest, either.  A better option would be to use a product like Bifen IT on the bushes to help control those that contact a treated area.  We also have a great guide on treating waps and hornets here.

  • 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
    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.
