House and Garden spray used on veg plants #880414
Asked August 06, 2024, 2:26 PM EDT
I had holey leaves and not sure if I saw insects on my pepper plants, which were in patio pots, so I used Raid House & Garden spray on the plants, which had some peppers already growing. Just wonder if now that they are larger and could be picked, if they are safe to eat. I only used this spray once and plants have been watered daily and rained upon since then. I also sprayed the one cherry tomato plant in a patio pot, but there were no flowers or fruit on that one at the time. Thank you for your help.

Hi,
We always follow what the label says and your label (link below) says:
"Product is for use on ornamental garden plants only. It is not for use on edible crops".
So eating those crops would not be safe.
