With only a few days to go until weigh off I have been doing battle with what I thought was a squirrel but now believe to be mice in the patch.  I noticed some chewing on a pumpkin and immediately thought of the squirrel that had been busy with the sunflower seeds.  I found a spray which was labeled a deterrent for squirrel and raccoon so I picked up some to give it a try.  It was dark when I had time to spray so I sprayed the ground around the pumpkins and sprayed some on the sides of the fruit and a bit on the top where the chewing took place.   In the morning when I went to ckeck the patch over I discovered that the cream colored fruit had developed orange patches where I sprayed it.   Is there a category for spotted fruit. I have heard of people using oils and wax to enhance the colors but I think this stuff went overboard.  I guess I should be thankful that it brought out the orange color and not a pink or purple. My question is are there any regulations about what can or can not be applied to the surfaces.   Thanks for any info and good luck to all at this weekends weigh offs.
