Customers overwhelmingly praise this dust for its powerful pest-elimination performance, with most reporting immediate results against ants, aphids, beetles, and other garden pests. Reviewers consistently highlight how simple it is to apply—just shake it directly onto plants, preferably in morning dew—with only a small amount needed for effective coverage. Many customers report using it reliably for years as their go-to gardening solution after other products failed. A few mention packaging concerns about underfilled containers, though these isolated complaints do not diminish the strong consensus that this delivers dependable, visible pest control results.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I scattered the approx amount of Sevin Dust suggested by the directions on the bottle to my flowers and plants I’ve been having issues with ants just destroying. After a week or so my elephant ears are bigger than they’ve ever been and without holes from ants all over them. I will stay stocked on this product! A must have! My plants NEEDED THIS. Will without a doubt recommend to a friend

Highly Effective
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that this Sevin Dust is ready to use and that you don’t have to mix it up. I also like that it will not harm plants and flowers.

It kills more than 150 different garden pests and can be used as a preventative measure or to kill existing pests. I really like that it can be used for both. Not only can it be used around a number of plants and flowers, ...

Sevin dust for repelling garden bugs and mites
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used garden tech Sevin dust before. It is a great product. Sevin dust’s M active indigent is bifenthrin, not only does it help repel garden bugs and mites, it works great for mosquito repellent around the sitting area on my porch. Like most other insecticides, you have to reapply after a heavy rain. Will definitely use again.

Great for getting rid of garden pests
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used Sevin Insect Killer Dust on my roses and in my vegetable garden after noticing insect damage. The shaker bottle made it easy to get the dust right where I needed it! I like that it comes ready to use no mixing or measuring required, it made the process so much simpler. I’ll definitely be keeping this on hand throughout the growing season!

Very Convenient/Just Open Cap And Shake
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Garden Tech SEVIN Insect Killer Dust is an effective, easy-to-use barrier treatment that covers up to 2,000 sq. ft. per 1 lb container. Applying a 3 to 4-inch strip around my foundation completely eliminated spiders and stopped ants from reaching my pet's food bowl. It kills over 150 insect species, though it does not target fire ants. For best safety, avoid applying on windy days, I keep away from blooming plants, and protect my nearby pon...

Works great if you can get the lid to open.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This insect killer works very well. The size was perfect for my needs. My paths to my outbuildings gets ants, spiders, ticks and other icky bugs that make it scary and potentially dangerous to traverse. This kills them instantly. I'm not sure how long it will stay effective. Maybe till the next rain. One thing to note is that the snap on the lid is impossible to open without tools. It bent my fingernail back and the sharp edge actually cut me....
