I then proceed to read the warnings: do not use around humans/animals do not ingest etc....
(IDIOT MOMENT CLIMAX)

nothing has begun fruiting yet.

we've been getting a LOT OF RAIN recently and I'm hoping it will rinse it and dilute it to safe levels.....possible?

Is the entire garden a bust now?

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS?

I FEEL COMPLETELY ASININE I can't believe I did this.

Amdro Fire Ant Killer contains 0.73% hydramethylnon, which is labeled for non-crop treatment.

The LD50 rating on it equates to 9 pounds needing to be ingested by a 50lb dog to be fatal. It takes 2-4 weeks to break down, so as long as you're at least a month out from harvesting you should be fine.
