Dioxins in my garden?

[Guest guest]

Hi All - hopefully someone can point me in the right direction...

We moved into a new home almost a year ago. The inspection showed termites, so

the

homeowner paid for Sentricon to be installed around our house. We were told (and

I

blindly believed) that it was completely harmless to humans. Well, I planted a

garden (we

did not use ANY pesticides) and, all summer and fall, my daughter and I ate the

vegetables

....

I recently went to a homeopath who found dioxin in my blood and I was left

wondering

what it could be from? Could it be from the garden? We also have Black Walnut

trees,

should we not eat from them? Should we now get rid of the sentricon? I was

planning a

much larger garden with apple trees for next year ...

 

I don't want the termites but I'd rather not fill myself and daughter with

harmful toxins...

 

Any help or direction would be much appreciated!!

 

Thanks,

Betsy
