I need a way to get rid of wasps without poisoning myself! What can I do??? Hi Rosemary, As far as I know, yes, Sevin is effective against wasps. I would recommend you to look into other insecticides, that might be a bit more efficient in your case. Hope this helps! Best, Karen. Terro brand roach and ant liquid baits work awesome. So does that roach gel that you squeeze out along base of your walls and baseboards.
Get both of these for a one two punch to get rid of roaches. Also get rid of any cardboard boxes in your home as the glue in those boxes attracts roaches. I need to get this out there. And I am going tostart here. Yes I always use as directed. I spent years in Michigan and it was always my first choice. Never again. What ever bugs are on the lable. It does not get rid of them, I am so dissappointed. Sorry to hear that! I would recommend for you to try contacting GardenTech, who manufactures Sevin, maybe they will have an idea why it is so.
Read the label carefully. You want to use the one that has Zeta-Cypermethrin — 0. I sprayed this on all my herbs in my patio planter including Basil because I have a problem with earwigs eating holes in my Serrano peppers as well as my Basil at night Is this harmful for us humans?
You should check the label to see how long after the application you have to wait for each specific herb. The time is different for different types of plants. Sevin should kill Tawny crazy ants. It definitely will kill Ticks and Fleas! And it should work for several weeks, as long as you let the product dry for at least 24 full hours. Sevin does kill fire ants, yes! And although Sevin is intended to be used as a perimeter treatment, I believe you can apply it to the fire ant colony mound.
Although a better practice would be to spray Sevin on the area around the mound because this way it is more likely that the ants will come into contact with Sevin and be killed by it. Also, make sure to always check the label and follow all the instructions mentioned there!
It would be nice if Sevin provided a list of plants that are phytotoxic with Sevin. Sprayed a greenhouse full of flats of small plants and Sevin burned a lot of them and stunted others. Very unhappy with this product.
I thought it was water soluable like Spinosad. Lesson learned. Sorry to hear that, Norm. Indeed lesson learned. Hope you manage to rebuild your greenhouse garden. Yes, Sevin should kill aphids.
