Does liquid Sevi have a shelf-life? I have used it on my roses to control Japanese Beetles but they look like they thrive on it! The bottle of Sevin I'm using is probably 5 yrs old. If you know of something better, please help. Thanks. PJ

All chemicals & medicines have a shelf life. If it's not listed on the label, try calling the 800 number on the label & ask the consumer help line rep. Some chems get less active, some turn into some nasty stuff....don't pour the crud down a sink, storm drain, etc.

Yep, especialy liquids degrade fast. Many powders ar rather stable.

Dispose of it through your local haz mat collections.
