SEVIN Poultry Insecticide Mites Lice Fleas Tick Bed Bugs Ant Dust

Active Ingredient

Carbaryl (7.5%): This is the active ingredient in Sevin Dust. It works by overstimulating the insect's nervous system, eventually making it impossible for the insect to breathe.

How It Works

Mode of Action: Sevin Dust must be ingested or come into contact with the insect to be effective. Once the insect touches or eats the dust, the carbaryl overstimulates its nervous system, leading to respiratory failure.

Target Pests

Poultry: Effective against mites, lice, fleas, and ticks.

Other Uses: Can also be used around beds, homes, garden plants, trees, and atop anthills to control various insect colonies.

Application

Poultry: Sprinkle the dust directly onto the birds and their living areas. Repeat the application if necessary.

Home and Garden: Sprinkle the dust around beds, homes, garden plants, and other areas where insects have been spotted.

Safety

For Poultry: Sevin Dust is safe for use on chickens and other poultry when used properly. It does not harm the birds but effectively controls pests.

For Humans: Always follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure safe use. Avoid inhaling the dust and wash hands thoroughly after application

Poultry and Livestock

Mites and Lice: If your poultry or livestock are infested with mites or lice, Sevin Dust can be applied directly to the animals and their living areas to control and eliminate these pests.

Fleas and Ticks: Sevin Dust is also effective in controlling fleas and ticks on pets and livestock. Apply it to the animals' coat and rub it into their skin.

Home and Garden

Bed Bugs: If you have a bed bug infestation in your home, Sevin Dust can be sprinkled around beds and other infested areas to help control and eliminate bed bugs.

Garden Pests: Sevin Dust is effective against a wide range of garden pests, including ants, beetles, caterpillars, and grubs. Apply it to garden plants, trees, and shrubs to protect them from insect damage.

Anthills: Sprinkle Sevin Dust directly onto anthills to control and eliminate ant colonies.

Precautions

Avoid Beneficial Insects: Sevin Dust can also harm beneficial insects such as bees and butterflies. Apply it during early morning or late evening when these insects are less active to minimize harm.

Dry Conditions: For maximum effectiveness, apply Sevin Dust during dry weather. Rain can wash away the dust, reducing its effectiveness.

By using Sevin Dust in these situations, you can effectively manage and control a wide range of pests in both your home and garden.
