I always thought Sevin was one of the "best" of the "worst" -- i.e., you
can use it on vegetables? (With waiting period, of course, and not using it
would clearly be better, but my eggplant wouldn't have any leaves left after
the JB got through with them.)

I was surprised to see Sevin mentioned here, because it was one of the

I also thought Sevin was one of the really bad pesticides. It's another
of
those I bought a long time ago and only used once.

Where's Radika? I'm sure she can tell us how bad this stuff really is.
Hey, who needs her anyway? I found these myself! (just kidding R.)

It seems Sevin isn't nearly a bad as some of the products out there.
