What is Sevin Dust?
Sevin insecticide dust (made by Garden Tech) is a popular name-brand pesticide containing carbaryl, a pest control product that has been used by gardners for years to control insects in gardens, ornamentals and on crops and edible vegetables. Sevin dust is considered a broad-spectrum insecticide, meaning that it will kill the majority of insects that come into contact with it. This includes insects that infest vegetable plants as well as some pollinating and flying insects.
Sevin dust bug killer is available in a dust form as well as a liquid concentrate. Most gardners prefer Sevin Dust as it is easier to apply in the dust form and comes in a covenient 1 lb. shaker container. Be careful when applying Sevin on flowering plants or flowers that attract pollinating insects as Sevin will kill those beneficial insects if they should come in contact with the chemical. Sevin has low toxicity to mammals when used as directed.

I work with wolves, and we receintly moved the entire pack to a new facility. It was over run with Fire ants and biting our poor wolves feet and bodys. I put the powder on the opening of the ant hill, and no more ants! The other products just made them move their hole about a foot away, but I'm not seeing any new holes.

You should wait at least 48 hours after applying Sevin Dust before watering plants. And you do not need to water them prior to an application. If it rained/watered beforehand, the area may be moist like if dew was present but not overly waterlogged.
Heavy dew or moisture in early mornings should not affect the efficacy of Sevin Dust 5%. It is recommended to make applications when calm weather is predicted and rainfall is not expected for atleast 24 hours to ensure that wind or rain does not wash the application off plant surfaces.
Unfortunately we cannot give advice on Sevin Dust 5% - 3 Pack or any other product for use on cannabis unless it is listed on the product label. We recommend you check with your local department of agriculture to see if they have released of a list products that can now be used on cannabis. We do know that state of Washington has compiled a list for cannabis and other states are starting to do so as well.

The leaves on the hibiscus looks like it's got a bug.
Sevin Dust should not be applied to hibiscus leaves. We recommend consulting with your local cooperative extension office Master Gardener to determine if you are dealing with insect or disease.
