Is it okay to use Sevin dust on heirloom tomato plants?

Do you have a particular concern about how Sevin will affect the plants? Is there a particular pest you need to control? I don't use it since it's extremely toxic to bees but I know many other T-vill members use it on heirlooms.

general hydroponics makes a great neem oil called azamax... this if used persistently will curb any kind of bug problem even spider mites... also helps with blights and fungi
