  • Asked by Elaine from Chagrin Falls, Oh
    07/04/2018
    Q
    Can Sevin Concentrate be used for Japanese beetles on basil?
    Basil is not listed on the PHI literature. I sprayed the Sevin ready to use this morning. Temps are in low 90's. Just had a very severe downpour. How soon should I spray again. And how long to wait before eating the basil?
    A

    Unfortunately Sevin Concentrate is not labeled to be used on basil.  Any basil sprayed with it should be discarded and not eaten.  Ferti-lome Triple Action would be a better option, applied in early morning before temperatures get too hot.

  • Asked by Peggy from Pickerington, Ohio
    07/05/2018
    Q
    Will Sevin residue kill bees or future caterpillars?
    Beetles have killed monarch caterpillars on my milkweed.
    A

    Sevin Concentrate now contains zeta-cypermethrin which is a non-selective insecticide that will leave some residual. You can use a product like PyGanic Gardening if you want a contact kill with minimal residual. PyGanic Gardening can be used on ornamental and edible plants.

  • Asked by Trey from Blain, Mn
    07/05/2018
    Q
    When using Sevin Concentrate with a hose-end sprayer, what is the correct setting at 1.5 oz per gallon?
    I have a 32 oz garden hose sprayer. It's a TBSP dial 1-10. I'm assuming I add Sevin without diluting it to this sprayer since it's attached to a garden hose and dilutes for me.. I'm confused.
    A

    Because every hose-end sprayer is different, we cannot say specifically what setting you will need to use. The water is just acting as a carrier for the concentrate, so you should start with a low setting and see how much water you use to cover a small area and then adjust your settings accordingly. There is more detail in the chart of page 5 of the Sevin Concentrate product label.

  • Asked by Marybeth from Walton
    07/05/2018
    Q
    Five hours after I sprayed Sevin concentrate on my green bean plants, it rained. Should I reapply?
    A

    Per the Sevin Concentrate Product Label you would not want rain for at least 24 hours after application to ensure the pesticide is not washed from the treated surfaces. If you feel the product was washed away you can reapply when no rain is expected for 24 hours.

    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
    Can I use Sevin Concentrate on my lawn for Japanese beetles?
    I have Japanese beetles bad, want to know what I can spray on lawn to kill them when they go back in ?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is not for use on turf, only for use on ornamentals and listed edibles for adult Japanese Beetles. For grub control in lawns and around ornamental plants, Dominion 2L (liquid) and Merit G (granule) are our most popular products. Tempo SC Ultra can be used for the adult beetles on ornamental plants. We have more great information and tips in our White Grub Guide here.

  • Asked by Douglas from Columbia
    07/21/2018
    Q
    What if it rains after I put Sevin Concentrate in my yard will it still kill fleas?
    A

     

    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.  If Sevin had to chance to dry before that time, it is rain fast after that. This occurs likely within 6 hours if sooner you may need to reapply.
