Would Not RecommendSo I get a bottle of seven dust to put on my plants before bringing them in the house soon. I remove the instructions so I can read them because it is so small to read. Yall, the bottle is not even half way full. These companies are getting over on us, like we didn't know already. It says 1 pound...this ain't 1 pound. #GardenTech shame on you.

New formula weaker than the old stuff
Would Not RecommendI've used Sevin Dust in the past to kill out yellow jackets that build behind vinyl siding. I've tried the new Sevin Dust with main ingredient Bifenthrin and it is pretty much useless against yellow jackets. I've used almost the whole pound, dusting the entrance to the nest every few days and hadn't slowed them down a bit. I ran across an old container of Sevin dust I had bought years ago that contained Carbaryl. Just one day after dusting the entrance with it, yellow jacket activity has almost ...

Would Not RecommendI use it on ormental flowers. It does NOT affect the insect population. My petunias are being eaten. No moths or caterpillars have been found on the plants this year, however, something is eating on the petunias and the zinnias. I juat wish I could find it and identify it.

disappointed this year
Would Not RecommendI use for multiple problems on my 33 rose bushes. Disappointed in results as most of my roses are in terrible shape. Did not help w/blk spots or Japanese beetles. Ate them up. One other problem is the amount of liquid in bottle, and the inability to use it to the bottom of the bottle. You practically have to be a contortionist to get it all out while spraying. Just can't use all the liquid when it won't spray out of the bottle. Cost is high to have to struggle to liquid out of bottle w/old hands...

I would buy this product. Print on container is too small
Would RecommendProduct works well. The print on the shiny plastic is too small to read. Is that 6 or 8 point type. Be ready to go to their website.

Seven dust
Would Not RecommendI started using seven dust many years ago. I used for quite a few things. my garden,grass, AND most of all my dogs outside beds, along with the grass they were on all day long!! I never checked the label again (THAT IS MY FAULT) I have recommeded this product to so many people not only for the lawn and garden but that it is safe for the dog beds. Im still using an old,old bag. Im not sure when the product changed!! I will still use it for my garden, just not for my dogs Red. .

Want a refund
Would Not RecommendI've been using seven dust for decades to eliminate fleas. After spinning a couple hours right under a light bulb trying to read the fine print on the back of the bottle, I never did see fleas listed on there and I know it used to be. That's the only reason I bought it so I don't know if it kills fleas. it doesn't say so that I can see in that little itty bitty print. That was the sole reason I purchased. Waste of money.

YES DOES KILL YELLOW JACKETS
Would RecommendThis was my go to for underground yellow jackets nests. Just throw a few tablespoons of powder in the entrance of the hive. Was skeptical since garden tech changed the formula from the 5% dust. Tried it last night and woke up to dozens of dead yellow jackets all around the entrance. Still works great

NOt THE SAME PRODUCT
Not the same chemical anymore. Have bought this for years and years for my purposes. Will no longer buy. The printing on the duster can is so small can hardly read with a magnifying glass. Ridiculous

Bait & Switch
Would Not RecommendSevin dust is no longer the tried and true, effective pesticide. GardenTech has purchased the name and changed the formula. Beware!!!
