    Q
    Will Sevin Concentrate kill bees on contact?
    A

    According to the Sevin Concentrate product label "This product is highly toxic to honeybees and other bees. Do not apply to plants in bloom." Almost all insecticides are toxic to bees as they are not really  selective.  You can help limit any effect to bees by being careful not to apply the insecticides when bees are actively foraging in the area.

  • Asked by Brian from Sarasota, Florida
    09/25/2019
    Q
    Can I mix liquid Sevin Concentrate with neem oil?
    A

    Since neem oil products already act as a contact insecticide, we are not sure why you would want to mix another insecticide such as Sevin Concentrate with it. Usually it is better to use these products in rotation rather than mixing them together so that you can help prevent insect resistance.

    Sevin Concentrate is a liquid concentrate that you dilute with water. It is not labeled for drenching or for use on houseplants or other containerized plants. If you need a product for containerized plants to treat insects like aphids, mealybugs, etc., then you can use Bonide Systemic Granules instead.

  • Asked by Scott from Prescott, Arizona

    Q
    Will Sevin Concentrate kill bark beetles (the fivespine ips)?
    The invasive bark beetle in Ponderosa Pine
    A

    Sevin Concentrate is labeled to treat bark beetles. The label states it should not be applied to trees larger than 10 feet tall; this is possibly because doing so would not apply an adequate amount of product to the trunk to be effective in killing insects that contact it. When treating for bark beetles, it is recommended to spray up to 15 feet high since generally they do not go much higher than that.  You can use a product like Permethrin SFR to do so. Unfortunately, once the borers have already infested the tree there are not any viable treatment options as they would be protected from sprays. In cases of infestation, the general recommendation is simply to protect the surrounding trees with preventative sprays with a product labeled for such a use. Infested trees will need to be trimmed and/or completely removed.
