    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.

    Do I need to wait 24 hours before I let my dog out after applying the Sevin Concentrate?
    A

    Pets should be kept out of the area while Sevin Concentrate is being applied.  They can return as soon as the area has thoroughly dried, which normally takes a couple of hours.

    Q
    How do I know when Sevin has killed the aphids on my bushes?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate can take time to kill insects, depending on the age and health, how long they spend on the treated area and how soon after application they contact it.  It can take a few hours up to 24 or more for insects to die.  You will just need to monitor the treated plants for any more signs of insects.

    Q
    Can I mix Sevin concentrate with ready to use spray? I have some left in my sprayer which has already been mixed
    A
    We actually do not recommend using any type of mixed solution after 24 hours of mixing. This is because the efficacy of the active ingredient will subside.
