Fenitrothion: an organophosphorus insecticide, which acts
by contact activity and a stomach poison. It is used for the
control of insect pests in public health programs.

Not the sort of things one finds in a gardening group, especially one
that has the word edible in it. You may have better luck at
alt.environmental.destruction .

Whatever your planning, I strongly suggest you don't do it.
