We need an insecticide for yard with grapes and other fruits/vegs
 
Some of the products say not to use during harvest
season ... Is there one that is better for yards with
eatable plants? Maybe I should avoid spraying too close
and go with some other kind of pesticide in the area of
the fruit bearing plants?

What bugs do you imagine yourself having a problem with? And, where do you
live?

it's called ORGANIC PEST CONTROL

good bugs eat your bad bugs

WAKE UP!

Some places the bear gits you... :(

Many are available w/ short duration...read application notes for
precautions/restrictions.

Your local county agent can suggest locale-specific control strategies
for specific pests/conditions.

Desert, Nevada. I'm pretty sure the bugs aren't imaginary. : -)
black widows, cockroaches, ants, I like crickets though ...

I'm awake although I could use some sleep ... I have enough
trouble spraying, but raising and breeding and taking pet bugs
for walks : -)

Poke around this site for a phone number:

Maybe they can suggest something other than poisoning everything in sight.

Try www.gardensalive.com I've seen some of their products and seen them work
well. I have personally used liquid ant bait and pantry pest traps. I know
those two work as advertised.
