Uh oh...ironite. Of course, if you are using Sevin, Ironite is likely
of no concern to you.

Should it be? Our soil is so alkaline it's recommended Ironite be used.

Dispose of the Ironite in an ecological manner (the jerk next door is
always a good choice). Excuse me, I seem to be having a schizophrenic
moment. As I was saying, in an ecologically responsible manner, and use
sulfur powder or sphagnum moss to lower your soil's pH. The world will
thank you. Your community will thank you, and your metabolism will thank
you.

use powdered lime to counteract alkalinity. Ironite is nasty
stuff.
chemicals like Sevin should be used sparingly, if at all, as
well.
stick around & ask questions. we can help you move to a more
organic (& possibly less expensive) form of gardening.
