A Computer Virus "Sevin Dust", which is a gardener's pesticide that's been around for about 50 years.
Sevin is the pesticide carbaryl and some formulations are label for use on vegetables. In the United States the EPA regulates pesticide use and requires what is known REI (Re-entry Interval) and "Days to Harvest" (or use) to be on the label. REIs are the days or hours between pesticide application and when it is safe to enter the field. Days to Harvest is the time required between pesticide application and harvesting the crop. These intervals are not negotiable if you are concerned about safety. It would be difficult to tell you exactly the REI and Days to Harvest from just the word Sevin, there are many formulations and concentrations of this product marketed and each once will have differing labels, REIs and Days to Harvest. If you do not have the label, an internet search with the generic name, in this case carbaryl, or trade name, in this case Sevin, with the word label, should return a link to a sample label. Print it and keep it, pesticides labels carry the weight of law and are your best source of info on using a pesticide safely and effectively. On a personal note, all Sevin labels carry the precaution to avoid application where bees are working, Sevin is highly toxic to bees and for this reason alone, I don't use in it my veggie garden.
