    Q
    Will Sevin Ready to Spray Insect Killer kill and prevent roaches?
    A

    Sevin Ready to Spray Insect Killer states on the product label it can be used for roaches around homes: Thoroughly wet the outside perimeter of the home where pests tend to congregate. Use on lawns is prohibited. Will kill target pests that are present only at the time of application. Pest must be directly contacted for product to be effective.

    It will not prevent roaches as there is no residual.  For residual control around homes a better option would be something like Bifen IT.

  • Asked by Robbie from Jacksonville

    Q
    This product dies after about a minute of spraying. I have tested the batteries and they are 1.5 volts each. How do the batteries go in the unit? All 4 batteries positive side up and negative towards the springs?
    A

    The Sevin Ready to Spray Insect Killer does not use batteries to operate. This is a hose end sprayer that attaches to a garden hose and when turned to the “ON” position uses the water pressure from the hose to spray the product. We would recommend contacting the manufacturer directly of the product you are experiencing issues with for troubleshooting. If this is a Garden Tech product, you can Garden Tech by calling 1-866-945-5033.
