The chemicals, natural or not, are toxic. Even coffee is toxic.

What I said in my last email was that his recipes are non-toxic. You could
drink his brew for Fire Ants and, with only a teaspoon or two of orange oil
in each gallon, it wouldn't kill you.

Well, that said, maybe the compost tea would be more likely to be deadly (or
at least sickening) from bacterial growing in it so I still wouldn't drink
it myself...
