Hello all,

I have tried tons of different pest controls such as spectracide triazacide or however you spell it and nothing stacks up to sevin. Last year we moved into our new home and we have a beautiful red maple in the front and we also planed a weeping cherry. Well this area has a really bad problem with japanese beetles. My trees looked horrible for half of the year last year even when I had beetle bags out.

This year I decided to fight back with Sevin dust. It is difficult to apply on a tree in the dust form however this year the beetles fell from the tree dead. There is a ton of them on the ground around the tree everyday now. My tree is still in great shape.

I like the dust however I am going to try the spray next time just to see if it cuts back on the dust problems.

Pros: Sevin Dust is cheap and effective for flea control
Cons: As the name implies it is a dust, so be prepared.

Another easy way to apply Sevin Dust to carpets, beddings and animals is to pour it into a nylon stocking, just the cheap knee highs you can buy for around .33 cents a pair works wonders. Just shake it and it leaves a fine dusting of powder.
