Just wondering if sevin will have any adverse effects on Myco. I had no choice but to put some sevin on the leaves, Due to the fact that the Cumber beetles decided to show up. If it does have a adverse effect would it be to my advantage to get some sprayable innoculant from places like Hollands Land o Giant.

I wouldn't think so Sevin is not a fungicide.

To the best of my knowledge you will be fine.

Sevin kills earthworms so avoid runoff. It also kills mite predators so watch for mite outbreaks later this summer.

Bifenthrin kills mites and not worms. It also works better so you might want to upgrade.

Temor,
what about Permethrin? I used Sevin last year and I believe it's what killed all my worms. They're back this year. I'm going to try mosquito barrier(99.3% garlic). The Permethrin is for a back up.

Permethrin is another good choice. Same chemical family as bifenthrin though two generations older.
