for veggies.
 Only thing is it was a great big mound last year with a rat run/s. OH & brother dug it all away last summer. The soil there is beautiful only thing is - just a bit funny about growing stuff i knew stinky rats were. Is there a disenfectant i can use first??

Not sure about utilising it for veg and a disinfectant to add to the soil to be honest.  I would be more inclined to grow something else for a couple of years.  Others may disagree.

I am morbidly scared of Weils disease though so slightly biased.  Whatever you grow, make sure you are scrupulously careful about gloves and washing your hands
