    Works fast!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We used this around my flower bed, also where I planted my sunflowers and tomatoes. After spraying we noticed instantly that the spiders didn't like it and ran the other way. It works fast and is very effective, exactly as I expected from Sevin. I would use this again. We only used 1/3 of the bottle so it will be good for many uses.

      Hmmm, not sure about this one
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited to receive this product because we've been dealing with a few minor insect situations with my plants. I sprayed this ONCE, but I started noticing that one of my plants started to brown. A few days later, my once vibrant plant was completely brown and shriveled nothing has brought it back. Although, I was sad I lost a plant, I was happy to that it got rid of the insects that we were having issues with with. I'll give it another try.

        Great Product
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a very convenient and great product. It has helped with the bugs on our patio and porch that cause issues with our flowers and plants. It has helped with the little black ants we get when it is warm. The bottle is huge and will last a long time. The sprayer is is easy to use, but can start to hurt your hand, as mind started to get stuck. There isn't a strong smell, which is great too. All in all I would buy this product for now on.

          Not sure about this spray
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this spray as part of a free sample program. I used it on one of my hibiscus trees and a gardenia tree. Both had some bugs that I wanted gone. One plant is struggling now after the spray and may not make it. The other plant is hanging on but definitely got damaged by the spray. I'm not sure if I sprayed too much or the trees are just sensitive to pesticides. But I think going forward I would rather use the powder version of this product instead of the liquid spray. I'm hoping my plants will make a comeback. I don't think I'll be buying this spray. I would rather use the powder.

            Relief for my garden
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A must try or must I say a must get and have on hand if you have a garden in your home. This wonderful 1.33 gallon of Sevin Insect Killer is a must have in our home now. To start, it is so easy to use. It has a battery operated sprayer to use to go around and spray our plants, trees, vegetables, whatever we have in our garden. When I say easy to use, I mean, It does not require any measuring at all to spray out plants which is great to know. The best part is that it tackles over 100 different insects that might attack our garden in different areas. Things we might not even think of, it can handle and I totally love that. We can use it from our flowers and trees to even our edibles like fruits and vegetables which is awesome and I love it. It is safe for all our garden. No need to but separate products, just one and that is it. Best of all is that is actually does start working within a few days. You see your favorite plants, flowers, herbs, whatever it is you are treating go back to it's living state in just a few days. So you see why I say it is a must have to have on hand to tackle all those different types of nasty insects that we might get in our garden. Just spray some of this easy to use point and spray and wait for it to work.

              Kills bugs dead to grow beautiful plants instead
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really happy to have received this product for review. I just started some container gardening for my son. At first, I was skeptical that this product would work. But it proved me wrong. Not only did it get rid of the bugs it also helped her plants grow much faster. I will say that it did get rid of all the bugs. There are a few spiders that seem to hang around but don't look like they are doing damage to the plants so it's ok. Glad I was able to test this out and will have to buy more on a larger scale to see how it would do in a full size garden.

                This year the strawberries are mine!!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Last year was my first real attempt at gardening. It was a summer long battle against forces aimed at destroying my crops before I could get to them. I built a fence around each plot and that helped keep out the ground critters, but the insect types were not deterred by my chicken wire. Not wanting to resort to insecticides, I gave it my best shot with Neem. It helped, but ultimately, my little plants little leaves were full of holes. Just before this (gardening) season began, I recieved a bottle of Sevin Ready to Use Insect Killer by GardenTech. I was skeptical about using it at first, but as I saw a handful of baby strawberries (from my one plant that came back) already half eaten, I knew it was time to step things up a bit. This product claimed to be fruit & veggie safe, so I sprayed every leaf, tendril, and berry down thoroughly (a process made much easier by not having to dilute it myself). Hopefully, it will be ME enjoying my strawberries (and future goodies from my garden) this year!!

                  Efficient and Easy to Use
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] GardenTech Sevin Insect Killer Ready to Use 1.33Gal was easy to use and very efficient at killing the bugs in my garden. I like the spray handle since I can target bugs that were under the leaves of my eggplants or ants on the ground without having to spray areas that don't need treatment like my basil plant. The instructions say it is safe to use on your vegetables from 1 day before harvest for things like broccoli, and brussel sprouts, 5 days for tomatoes, 14 days for onions and 21 days for corn. Just make sure you wash all your veggies before eating them as you normally would. This product kills over 130 types of bugs without harming your plants. You can use it on flowers, shrubs, trees, and lawn too. I'd definitely purchase this form of Sevin spray for the convenience and controlled spray.

                    It really works!
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave this a little while to see how good it works. It actually did such a good job of keeping bugs out of our garden and off our plants. My husband sprinkled a little around our tomato plants and pepper plants. Our tomatoes are growing free of any holes, bugs sitting on them, and or flying around them. I was so happy not to have to mix, measure or add water to this product. I also added a little around my hydrangeas in my flower bed.

                        Seems to keep bugs away
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been trying to keep bugs out of my house for all time and this seems like a good product. I've heard of and have seen this brand, but never used it. I sprayed the outside of my house with it and it seems to work for the most part. I've seen a couple of ants come through so either I didn't spray enough or it's not as strong as I hoped. It's simple and easy to use, but my hand got tired after squeezing the trigger multiple times. I think an aerosol type can, like Raid, would be a good thought.

                          Not What I Was Hoping For
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] How does this product compare to other products you've tried? I have been looking for something I can use to kill ants and other insects in my vegetable garden, without harming my vegetables. I tried this Sevin Insect Killer on two types of ants and chinch bugs. Unfortunately, none of the bugs died on contact as the product states. Would you buy this product? I would not buy this product, as it did not do what I needed it to do in my garden. Would you recommend this product to your friends or family? I would not recommend this particular Sevin product. I have purchased other Sevin products that worked fine, but this particular one did not. I literally drowned ants with the product and they crawled right out of it. Not what I was expecting at all.

                            Fantastic for Vegetable Garden
                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super easy application. Love the quick application mode and how fast it works. Applied to my vegetable garden. Had a variety of different insects damaging my harvest. But this has remedied the issue.

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't like to use chemicals on my plants but let's face some sometimes those bugs are out of control and you don't have any other choice. This stuff is amazing esp for aphids. I love that it is pre mixed, it makes it so easy to use. I'm sold. You need to try this.

                                Easy spray and no drips!
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am always so cautious with this type of stuff, but I was really surprised how clean it was. I didnt get ANY on me and it didnt leak or drip. The spray had options of strength/style of spray. And even after spraying it, I dont smell it... likely bc I didnt end up with any on me.

                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm very happy with the ease of use of this sprayer. It comes pre installed with batteries so that saved a lot of headache. It's easy to set up and straightforward. The settings allow a larger spray with two other small spray options. It covers the area around my house well and I think I'd be able to get at least two more coverages. My plants still look great and it seems be keeping the bugs at bay. Overall, I'm very happy and would recommend this to others.

                                        Sevin kills on contact
                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As luck would have it, I had just received a sample of Seven insect killer to use and review, and I discovered my 3 ft. Poinsettia which I had carefully nurtured for the last three years was covered with whiteflies. So, I grabbed the jug of Sevin , which by the way has a really neat and easy to use hand-held sprayer, and sprayed my Poinsettia. It truly kills on contact as the label says. It took care of every one of those little whiteflies. So now I am prepared for any insect problem on any of my plants or even in my vegetable garden. According to the label, Sevin kills over 130 insect/pests without harming plants. I have used other insect sprays that harmed my plants or didn't really work quickly on the insects. Sevin will always be in my garden shelf from now on.

On fruit trees, nuts, citrus, vegetables, and other crops, it kills a number of insect pests on contact and continues to protect them over time. It works better than other insecticides in the field. market...I will indeed buy it and recommend it to friends, family and everyone...I am fascinated by how it works I instantly loved it

                                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the product. It worked and did what it said. This time of year so many bugs are coming out I could barley get in through my front door without being bombarded by all types of flying insects. I sprayed on and around my door as well as the lawn near the entry ways and have seen a significant decrease in dead bugs on my door and live bugs roaming around. It has also helped with ants. Only down is the scent, it is a bit strong. But I would definitely recommend!

It really is ready to use other than attaching the spray nozzle. This is the first time I've ever used a motorized nozzle. I'm assuming that there are non-removable batteries in the spray nozzle. You can hear it work everytime you push the trigger. The sprayer reaches about 4 to 6 feet in distance, which is good because it can reach the plants at the back of the flower bed. We noticed that bugs had put holes on the leaves of our plants. I sprayed the area around the plants and haven't noticed any new bug holes-- sign that the Sevin insect killer is working. I also sprayed the fire ant mounts although, I'm still waiting to see if that will work to get rid of the fire ants. I will continue to use this and try to see if it helps us get rid of the giant outdoor palmetto bugs that we also have issues with.

You can use indoor and well as outdoor. It's easy to use. With the hot summer sun in Texas its hard to keep the bug population down, but with the GardenTech Sevin Insect Killer Ready to Use I can spray my doors inside and out when I start seeing the bugs and it takes care of it before we have problems. However it does not kill on contact. It does take a few minutes to work, but I would definitely recommend the GardenTech Sevin Insect Killer Ready to Use.
