My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Sevin on plants?

17 years ago

Ok I had something attack both my pepper and tomato plants.

I'm pretty sure it was aphids. I took them outside and sprayed them off and sprinkled sevin on them. My question is is it safe to have the sevin scattered on the dirt even while watering. Will this method effect the water quality for plant health? Should I brush the sevin on the leaves only and avoid the dirt?
