Sevin Concentrate Liquid Bug Killer

I mixed Sevin concentrate as directed: 4 fluid ounces per gallon of water. Sprayed the mixture on my zucchini plants, butternut squash plants, and on my pear tree. All the leaves on the pear tree turned black within 24 hours. My squash plants produced no fruit and slowly died. I also bought Sevin granular pesticide for my lawn. When I saw what Sevin did to my pear trees, I returned the bags of Sevin back to the store for a refund. Never to buy Sevin again!

Been using Sevin under various names for a few decades. Usually the powder in a panty hose in the garden and on the dig when I was a kid. But you talk about how a little goes a long way. Then say 4 ounces to a gallon of water. But you leave out the part of the equation. How much area does that cover? A 10' X 25' area. You can put 4oz in a quart or 10 gallons, but the area it covers determines just how concentrated it is. 250 square feet needs 4 ounces of product. Would you please make that information a little easier to find, and possibly in your advertising? Would be appreciated.

I purchased this product because a lot of my Facebook garden groups recommended this product for my large infestation of cucumber beetles and squash bugs. I applied it last night, and 24 hours later I went to my large vegetable garden to look around. I did not notice one bug flying in the air or on my plants. It did rain all day and it's still dreary. However, I'm saddened because the only dead bug which I saw was actually a honey bee on one of the leaves of my pumpkin. I'll know more tomorrow, and I'm praying for my pollinators that I'm not sending them to their death. I guess I'll see more tomorrow, but if you are looking to save the pollinators; this isn't the product, and sevin needs to put bees on their list of insects. If I would have reviewed sevin on line before use I would have used possibly a different product. Putting not to recommend to those who want to keep polinators yes for those who don't need them

Product works great, container keeps disconnecting from house, wasted 3/4 of Product twice. Will not purchase again until new design. Yes I did turn water pressure down.

It took about two days to completely rid the ant colony the 2nd day they were still squirming my only concern is the bigger bugs like beetles got spray on them and the lizards ate the bugs, now I don't want to start killing my geckos so that was my only worry and I tried to catch the lizard but he ate a huge bug with spray all over it.
