2018年2月21日 · My Grandparents used Sevin, my parents used Sevin, many years ago I used Sevin but not anymore. I do not trust anyone or anything anymore especially big business and the government.

2010年5月27日 · Ok I got rid of all my Sevin Dust and mixed up the concoction Rainbowgardener suggested. I also bought a EcoSmart brand insecticide that is labeled organic and non-toxic. Its' active ingredients are rosemary,clove and thyme oils. Are these types effective and safe to use?

2011年5月17日 · Absolutely, Kisal is right about reading all of the information about any pesticide or chemical. Spraying at night is an excellent recommendation. We used Sevin as a last resort and sprayed in the evening when the wind was calm. We had the Sevin for a week before we used it so we read and thought about it a lot. We also purchased the Sevin at a local garden …

2022年9月3日 · I have problems with Plum curculio and codling moths. I'm currently using Sevin 100530124 GardenTech Insect Killer Concentrate. It did well on the plum curculio, but I think my timing was bad on the codling moths. I would like to have another insecticide in order to alternate applications to prevent the insects from building immunity.

Diatomaceous Earth, Pyrethrins, BT, and Rotenone are some naturally occuring things that some gardeners use to kill insects. There are also some chemicals like Sevin and Malathion that will kill insects, but most of us prefer to stay away from these chems.

2006年7月8日 · Sevin is one of the most potent pesticides you can use and will kill beneficial insects as well. Do read the label VERY carefully as to how soon after use you can eat the veggies or fruit.

2010年6月16日 · There is no organic way to kill a squashbug (and even liquid sevin won't kill an adult). You'll save money and personal sanity if you manually kill them yourself.

2018年5月20日 · From your description I would speculate that they are squash bugs. Do you have any pictures? Also, is this your only zucchini plant? Stay away from Sevin. In the place of it try Neem oil or Pyrethrin, they are safer. Try using a sharp edge to scare the eggs off. When they are layed they have to be firmly attached to the underside of the leaf in order to survive winds and …

2011年5月12日 · Those would be whiteflies. They serve the same "purpose" as aphids: pest, and potentially harmful to your plants if left unchecked. You're on the right track with the marigolds, but no sevin! I did find last year that sunflowers are an excellent trap crop when planted around tomatoes. They attracted huge numbers of leaf-footed bugs and aphids, and they are sturdy …

2016年8月6日 · I though that worked for about 2 days, and then I found another dead plant. I kept applying on the recommended schedule, but it hasn't made a difference. I also tried the sevin powder, at the recommendation of my father, and slug and snail pellets, at the recommendation of my local nursery. Neither helped.
