    Q
    Will Sevin kill house files? I have a terrible problem with flies on my shrubs surrounding my patio.
    Impossible to sit outside without covering your food or glass. Flies cover my shrubs and constantly land on you. So difficult to sit outside or entertain, let alone how many get in the house. We live in the county, rural area with 5 acres but no life-stock.
    A
    Sevin Concentrate is labeled to kill Sawflies. However, we would recommend our Flies Be Gone Fly Trap for long term control. Flies Be Gone traps appeal strongly to a flies' natural instincts. It provides them with food and a warm place to lay eggs. Once inside the trap, they cannot escape. Flies Be Gone bait is especially appealing to female flies. Up to 85% of flies caught are female, which helps decrease the next generation of flies.

    Q
    Will Sevin kill spider mites
    Spider mites have infected my tomato plants.
    A
    The Sevin Concentrate is not labeled for spider mites. We would recommend using Hi-Yield Indoor/Outdoor Broad Use Insecticide to control the pider mites on your tomato plants. This product can be used inside homes, in home gardens for labeled fruits and vegetables, and on ornamental plants and lawns around residential, industrial, commercial, and other non-agricultural outdoor areas. The Hi-Yield Indoor/Outdoor Broad Use Insecticide can be used on tomatoes, except cherry tomatoes.

    Q
    Will Sevin kill black vine weevil?
    A
    Sevin is labeled for weevils but does not exactly list black vine weevil. Talstar is labeled for treatment of weevils and many of our customers have cited success with Talstar for weevils.  The product label calls for half an ounce per gallon of water, and this should be applied over 1000 square feet.  There are not really any special instructions other then to cover all foliage completely including the base and trunks of the non-edible plants.

  • Asked by Danny from Cedartown, Ga
    06/15/2014
    Q
    What setting on a hose-end sprayer do you use to spray Sevin Concentrate?
    what setting do you use to spray Sevin Concentrate with a hose end sprayer such as Ortho Dial n Spray. The label says you can apply with this method, but it does not reference a setting.
    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 product label.

    Q
    Which dial hose end sprayer is best for Sevin concentrate?
    I used an ortho dial a spray and it would stop up. Just wondering if any of them work.
    A
    Sevin Concentrate should not clog up hose end sprayers, if they are cleaned after every use. We have just added a new hose end sprayer the Chapin 6005. This hose end sprayer can spray liquid and dilute water soluble powders without issue.
