    Q
    Can vegetables be washed of Sevin to be eaten safely before PHI?
    My husband sprayed our green beans and corn with Sevin and they are both ready now to pick. My husbands suggests I pick it anyway and just wash it off. Is this safe?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled to be applied to green beans so any that were sprayed with the product would need to be disposed of. For corn you should not harvest for 3 days after an application per the product label. Then, you can harvest the corn and wash it off safely. Consuming before the PHI directed on the product label would not be recommended to be safe.

    Q
    Will seven concentrate kill mosquitoes and larvae in my lawn? If yes, how many oz per gal of water?
    A
    Sevin Concentrate can be used around the perimeter of your home only. It is not labeled to be used in your lawn.

    We would recommend using Talstar P in your lawn for mosquitoes in your lawn. This can be broadcast across your lawn, sprayed on brushes, trees, flowers, etc. It cannot be sprayed on any type of edibles.

  • Asked by Ramona from Beulah , North Dakota
    06/29/2015
    Q
    Can Sevin Concentrate be used on evergreen trees, ash trees, plum trees, and Japanese lilacs
    I had the trees sprayed by a lawn service and he used Sevin that hooks up to a water hose. My trees have leaves curling up and one tree they are turning brown and leaves are falling off. Is there anything I can do to help my trees or are they ok?
    A
    While we cannot comment on the services done by professional companies we can say that Sevin Concentrate is labeled to treat for insects on ornamental trees and on plum trees. It is possible a disease could be effecting the trees and causing the damage unless insects where identified as the cause.  WIthout knowing exactly what is causing the issues we cannot make recommendations on what you can do to help the trees.  The trees should be fine with an application of Sevin if used as directed on the product label.

    As long as the Sevin application has had about 24 hours to dry before rain fall occurs the application should not wash off of the treated area.  Please refer to the product label for reapplication timing on the particular area you have applied if it needs to be reapplied due to rain.

  • Asked by Eric from Swiss, Wv
    06/11/2015
    Q
    Will Sevin Concentrate address damage to peach and apple trees indicative of an aphid problem and ant problem?
    I haven't seen any aphids. The young fruit has dried sap like nodules on them and sap is seeping at interval parts of tree itself. Is there solely an ant problem or something else at work causing an added ant problem?
    A
    We are unsure of exactly what you are dealing with, whether it is ants or aphids. Sevin Concentrate is a very good product that is labeled for apples and peaches. Mix 1.5 oz - 3.0 oz per gallon of water and applied using a hand pump sprayer or a hose end sprayer
