    I need to use Sevin Granules on lawn to kill fleas. It is going to rain

  • Asked by Bev from Eustis, Florida
    08/17/2015
    Q
    Why can you only use Sevin Insecticide Granules four times a year on your yard?
    I live in central Florida, have been having a time this year with my lawn. Damage comes back every 6 to 8 weeks. I'm losing my lawn.
    A

    Sevin Insecticide Granules have labeling that only allows a limited number of applications per area per year. There is often a limit to the amount of product that can be used in an area annually, depending on label approval by the Environmental Protection Agency and manufacturer's recommendations. These restrictions could be based on potential of resistance, potential toxicity to the environment or to the application area, or a combination of several of these factors. Regardless, the label is the law and we always recommend using products only in accordance to the labeling.

     

    If you are experiences problems with Chinch Bugs, the most popular product that we carry for this pest is Talstar P. You will apply Talstar P at a  rate of 1 oz. per 1,000 square feet, then watering in the application with at least 0.25 in. of water to carry the active ingredient to where the bugs are feeding. Be sure to treat the entire lawn area, not just where you already see damage. You may also want to considering using a product for prevention earlier in the season, such as Merit Granules. When applied at the correct time, Merit Granules are used only once per year and will prevent damage later in the season. Please see our Chinch Bug Control page for more information.

  • Asked by Jim from Goddard, Kansas
    06/26/2017
    Q
    Do the Sevin Insecticide Granules work like Sevin Dust?
    I dusted my vegetable plants but don't think the granules will stay on the plants like the dust. Will the Sevin Insecticide Granules kill squash beetles that are on the plants?
    A

    Squash Beetles are not listed on the Sevin Insecticide Granules label. Granules are meant to be applied to the ground and watered in to activate. They would not stick to any foliage. Sevin Concentrate is labeled for squash beetles. According to the label, mix 1.5 fl. oz. of product per gallon of water and apply product in adequate volume to effectively cover both the upper and lower surfaces of the plant.
