I'm sure many people don't agree with me, but I figure there are so many things around here that aren't organic, what does it matter what I'm putting on the petunias. As long as it gets rid of the bugs. What is this Sevin stuff? Where do I get it? Is it a powder?...since you say I just dust it on. Will it make the flowers look dirty??
