I know, I know another gopher question. If I put poison down the holes near my patch and the pumpkin or other edible crops roots down into it, will the poison travel to the fruit? I can't seem to find anything about that situation.

I have a few holes here and a couple right near my zuchini and other squash so I want to be sure that if I poison those holes I am not putting the family at risk when they eat the produce.

common sense would say don't eat stuff where you poisoned in plant root areas like that. Better to be safe than sorry

Thanks, decided not to poison at this time. How did you end up. Saw some of your catch on the diary, and you said you were using repellent. What type and is it working?
