Will Sevins and the 10% Pymerthrim... hurt pollenation?

You need bees and certain bugs for pollenating right? will the sprays harm them or do you wait till summer do spray not the spring?

Pollination will take place regardless of whether or not you use pesticides. You are correct in assuming that some of these pesticides will kill honey bees and other insects that pollinate plants.

Good luck with your gardening.

It hasn't killed anything in my yard yet, but I wouldn't put it near a vegtable garden that you might eat from.
