    Q
    Is this safe for pigs?
    A
    You could potentially use Sevin Lawn Insecticide Granules where you have companion pigs. The animals should be out of the treatment area until the granules have been watered in and the area is dry. If you have livestock for sale, then you should not apply this product in those areas.

    Q
    When should I put Sevin down? I live in Tennessee (Week or Month)
    I would like to know when i first should appy sevin to my lawn.
    A

    It is always best to apply the insecticides, like Sevin Lawn Insecticide Granules, just prior to lots of insect activity. This will help keep the insect populations from building to intolerable levels. If it is warming up in your area and the insects are starting to get active, you should go ahead and apply now.

    Q
    Will this kill earthworms? Every rain, hundreds come out from a garden and crawl on our pool deck and die.
    They also crawl right into the pool and stain the gunite. I need them eradicated from the garden soil without harming any of the perennial plantings.
    A

    Sevin Lawn Insecticide Granules is not labeled for earthworms. There are no products on the market in the USA that are labeled for earthworms, as they are largely beneficial creatures.  We apologize, but we cannot make a product recommendation due to this. There are a few known control methods that include cutting back on irrigation so that the worms will go deeper into the soil for the moisture they require to survive, or fertilizing your lawn after a heavy rainfall, which will eliminate some of the population.

    Q
    Why are Sevin Granules still visible after rain? Is my dog safe to play outside?
    A

    Sevin Insecticide Granules should dissolve with good amounts of water. The granules that you see have not been activated, so your pet going into the lawn while they are dry should be fine. If your pet seems to be acting out of character or is sick, we would recommend taking your pet to a vet.

    Q
    Can you apply Sevin when the grass is damp?
    A

    Yes, the Sevin Lawn Insecticide Granules can be applied when the grass is wet; the water is what activate the granules. If it is going to rain close to the time you are applying the granules, that will be fine too. Failure to water in the granules can lead to treatment failure because the chemical cannot be released from the granule and will not be available to the pests.

  • Asked by Chris from Frankfort
    01/28/2024
    Q
    Can Sevin Lawn Insecticide Granules be used to kill cicadas before or while they are coming out of the ground?
    A

    Sevin Insecticide Granules is not specifically labeled to control cicadas, it may kill those that contact a treated area but would be very limited results.  

    There are not any products specifically labeled for them as they do not live long enough to be considered an economic pest. The females cause more damage than the males but the adults only emerge to mate and die. The next generation hatches 6-10 weeks after death. The females lay their eggs under bark. Larger trees can survive the some damage. They don't survive long enough for the products to be effective.
