Q

Can you apply seven and a lawn fertilize like Scott's ? If so what goes down 1st & how long for 2nd can go do

A

Yes, you can apply Sevin Lawn Insecticide Granules along with a lawn fertilizer, as long as the watering-in rates for each are the same. As long as you apply each product separately (apply one and then the other - do not mix them together in your spreader), the order does not matter.

Q

If apply granules for insects evening before will the morning dew be enough to get chemical in ground?

A

You will need to actually do a light watering with a sprinkler system or hose to water the Sevin Insecticide Granules in and activate them to release the chemical and start working. A morning dew will not be enough to activate the granules.

We normally would steer away from Sevin unless there is a veggie garden in the area. All animals need to be out of the area while you are doing the application and they can safely return after the treated area has dried. When spraying outdoors the area you are treating should be dry at the time of the application and for 24 hours after the application. After 24 hours the products will be rain safe. Conquer and Archer IGR can be applied. On upholstered furniture you could use a product that is labeled for this type of application such as Ultracide. Most infestations require a second treatment and severe infestation may even require a third treatment. Treatments should be applied at two week intervals. Infested areas indoors should be thoroughly vacuumed prior to product applications to help remove as much flea eggs, larvae and debris as possible, and also to help stimulate larvae to change stages and come into contact with the product. You should continue to vacuum at least every other day for the next two weeks. Pets should be treated for fleas as well as the areas they spend a lot of time such as pet bed, kennels, carriers, couches, and moist shady areas where they spend time outside. If you still want to use Sevin we recommend Sevin granules.

We generally recommend using a liquid for flying insects. Cyonara 9.7 is a great option that can be used around your yard as well.
