Help please,
I foolishly put some sevin dust on my greenhouse tomatoes as they were dying from whiteflies. I later found they don't work for whiteflies anyway.
Now my concern is my ladybugs. I've hosed down all my plants and greenhouse and am only concerned about the plants I've moved outside the greenhouse. Do you think the sevin is still active? Are my ladybugs safe?

my family was a firm believer of sevindust until I started posting on here because it is so harmful to just about everything. I have stopped using it and started going natural different oils or the soap and water spray just ask in here about what to use on the specific bug and I def know someone on here will I'm still learning so not quite sure yet on what to use on the whiteflies sorry.
