  • Asked by Brenda from Ville Platte, La
    08/03/2017
    Q
    Can Sevin Dust be applied directly on plant leaves?
    Can you spray any outdoor plant with Sevin dust? And could copper help your plant with yellow leaves?
    A

    Sevin Dust can be applied on plant leaves in most cases, but please be advised that the label states that new or tender foliage may be damaged in the presence of rain or high humidity in the first few days after application. 

    If you have some plants where the leaves are turning yellow, we would recommend that you identify the cause of the yellowing (drought, stress, disease, etc.) to determine whether it would be appropriate to use copper to treat this, or if a different type of product is needed.

  • Asked by Vin
    08/16/2014
    Q
    Sevin Dust 5% controls carpenter ants?
    Does Sevin Carbaryl dust control carpenter ants?
    A
    Sevin Dust 5% is not labeled for Carpenter Ants. We recommend using Carpenter Ant kit 2.
    First, this kit contains Dominion. Dominion is a sprayable liquid bait that makes up to 48 gallons of solution (enough to provide several years of outdoor protection) and can be sprayed around the outside of your home to provide a long-lasting barrier against carpenter ants and other ant species. Ants pick up the Dominion 2L on their bodies and spread it to other ants, eventually eliminating the entire colony.

    This kit also includes Advance Carpenter Ant Bait for outdoor control/indoor control and Maxforce Carpenter Ant Bait Gel for indoor control. The Advance Carpenter Ant Bait is great for sprinkling in a 2 foot barrier around the outside of your home to provide a food source that outside ants are looking for. It can also be applied around wood piles, trees, stumps, or other areas of harborage. Advance Carpenter Ant Bait can also be used indoors in bait plate stations. The Maxforce Carpenter Ant Bait is for indoor control and should be placed where you see ant activity inside. The ants will eat the bait and take it back to the nest spreading it around to the other colony members. You will need a pressurized garden pump sprayer to apply the Dominion 2L. We recommend using the Chapin Premier 1 Gallon Sprayer.

    Q
    Can I harvest plants that are near a Sevin Dust treatment site?
    I put Sevin Dust on my zucchini plant about a week ago. Yesterday I noticed that nearby plants also had some bug issues as well so I treated the nearby plants with Sevin Dust as well. I have two zucchini that will be ready to harvest tomorrow. Is it safe for me to harvest them before 3 days is up since they did not get the Sevin dust treatment, or should I wait another day just to be safe?
    A

    If the nearby zucchini plants were not contacted with Sevin Dust at all, the zucchini can be harvested at any time.
