    Q
    Wil Sevin Concentrate kill eggs and termites? How much per gal of water and how long does it take?
    I plan on pouring it down a hole in middle of tree.
    A

    Sevin Concentrate will kill the adult termites that are sprayed with the product. It will not replace a termite soil treatment around the perimeter of the structure. There are products that you can use to treat in the tree directly. Just keep in mind that termites are there because the tree is already dead or dying, so be sure to take down dead trees before they cause other damage. You could use Alpine Ant and Termite Foam to spot treat exactly where the galleries are in the tree. This product has a foaming agent to help coat the inside of any voids. Alternatively, you could use Dominion 2L as a spray, again treating inside the galleries directly. We would recommend using a termiticide like Taurus SC against the foundation in a trench or drilled holes (where there is concrete).  You can find more information on doing a complete treatment for termites in our Termite Control Guide

    Q
    Which Sevin product should I use to kill the insect that is drying my lemon tree and turning the leaves black?
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is labeled for over 250 pests so that might be an option for you.  However, without knowing what type of insect you are actually treating for we cannot say for sure that it would work.  If you are able to get a good, clear picture of the pest, you are welcome to email it to us at [email protected] and we will do our best to identify it for you.  You can also contact your local cooperative extension office for assistance.

    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.

    Can I use Sevin Concentrate to kill Japanese beetle grubs in my soil?
    I have a few semi dwarf citrus trees that I am growing in trees boxes. I am finding Japanese beetle grubs/ larvae in the soil. How much can I apply in a 2.5 gallon watering can to kill these grubs via a drenching method? My tree boxes are 36" boxes. These grubs eats the roots I am told.

    Sevin Concentrate is not labeled for white grubs or for use in containerized plants. Bonide Systemic Granules can be use for grubs in ornamental plants (not if you eat the citrus).

  • Asked by Kevin from Anna Illinois
    05/15/2019
    Q
    Why should Sevin concentrate not be used on lawns
    A

    The older formulation of Sevin which contains carbaryl cannot be used on home lawns since this active ingredient is restricted on lawns in residential areas. The newer formulation of Sevin Concentrate contains a different active ingredient, zeta-cypermethrin, which can be applied to lawns. Please be sure that you are reading and following the label for the specific product that you have regarding how and where to apply.
