Again, afaik, Sevin is still a non-RUP (restricted-use pesticide) easily
obtained at any retail outlet.

That's not what he said. He did talk like it was a recent thing, though.

Must be so recent that Ace hasn't heard of it yet nor did a quick google
return a hit about EPA and Sevin which would normally be expected to be
about the most prominent topic to come up if it were a recent development...

I suppose it could be something local or a pending thing, but it surely
doesn't appear to be so at the moment afaict...

Which lists Sevin dust, too.

It does, but the guy was on the radio in the last couple of weeks (he was
talking about the Armyworms Friday, but don't remember the Sevin issue being
brought up) saying that it is no longer available. It apparently is a very
recent thing. Current supplies are allowed to be sold.

OTOH, a web search brings up nothing relating to a ban on Sevin. Perhaps when
we're out later I'll look to see if it's on the shelves.
