How to get rid of yellow jacket bee's nest ?? - Page 3

 

Walmart has something with that name on the box. Knowing our EPA, it
is probably confectioners sugar, though.

I didn't think powdered Seven was available anymore.

I said that because one of the morning drive talkers has the county extension
services representative on every Friday.  Recently they were talking about
"Army Worm" infestations.  Apparently Seven is the only treatment for it and
he said it was now only available in liquid form, which is expensive for this
use.

Would need to know for what application was referring to--if was ag
application, Sevin isn't generally used at all so presume must have been
for garden/turf/lawn applications.

Again, afaik, Sevin is still a non-RUP (restricted-use pesticide) easily
obtained at any retail outlet.

For ag applications, it'll depend on whether they're army worms or army
cutworms; they're similar name but different species and life cycles.

Cutworms can be an especial a problem in winter wheat and other cereal
grains...they're one of our biggest worries every spring about what
level of infestations we'll see.

This was for lawn use.  He also said that Sevin was far too expensive for ag
use.
  

That's not what he said.  He did talk like it was a recent thing, though.

Must be so recent that Ace hasn't heard of it yet nor did a quick google
return a hit about EPA and Sevin which would normally be expected to be
about the most prominent topic to come up if it were a recent development...

I suppose it could be something local or a pending thing, but it surely
doesn't appear to be so at the moment afaict...

Which lists Sevin dust, too.
