    Q
    Can I mix Sevin concentrate with ready to use spray? I have some left in my sprayer which has already been mixed
    A
    We actually do not recommend using any type of mixed solution after 24 hours of mixing. This is because the efficacy of the active ingredient will subside.

    Q
    Do I broadcast the Sevin Concentrate or spray only plants in large field?
    I have 6 acres of newly planted strawberries. When they say 2qts/acre, does that mean I use a boom sprayer (spray the whole field) or is that rate for just spraying the rows of plants. Also, how much water with the 2 qts of Sevin per acre?
    A

    Per page 8 of the product label you would need to mix 3.0 fl. oz. of product per gallon of water and spray upper and lower leaf surfaces and between fruit clusters and on small limbs and trunks
    to the point of runoff where pest appear.  Repeat applications as necessary up to a total of  five times per year for small fruits, but not more often than once every seven days.

    We cannot find anything on the product label that mentions the 2 qt/acre application so we are unsure where that information came from.

    Q
    Will Sevin kill house files? I have a terrible problem with flies on my shrubs surrounding my patio.
    Impossible to sit outside without covering your food or glass. Flies cover my shrubs and constantly land on you. So difficult to sit outside or entertain, let alone how many get in the house. We live in the county, rural area with 5 acres but no life-stock.
    A
    Sevin Concentrate is labeled to kill Sawflies. However, we would recommend our Flies Be Gone Fly Trap for long term control. Flies Be Gone traps appeal strongly to a flies' natural instincts. It provides them with food and a warm place to lay eggs. Once inside the trap, they cannot escape. Flies Be Gone bait is especially appealing to female flies. Up to 85% of flies caught are female, which helps decrease the next generation of flies.

    Q
    Which dial hose end sprayer is best for Sevin concentrate?
    I used an ortho dial a spray and it would stop up. Just wondering if any of them work.
    A
    Sevin Concentrate should not clog up hose end sprayers, if they are cleaned after every use. We have just added a new hose end sprayer the Chapin 6005. This hose end sprayer can spray liquid and dilute water soluble powders without issue.
