Is Gordons Ornamec Over-The-Top Grass Herbicide safe around fruit trees?

I have a Bermuda grass lawn that surrounds a very old orange tree. Is it ok to eat the fruit after applying this herbicide around the tree? If not, how long should I wait?

Answer:

Gordons Ornamec Over-The-Top Grass Herbicide should not be used around edible vegetation not listed on the product label and only sour orange is on the label. You should not treat inside the dripline or within 15 ft of the tree (outside the root zone).  Instead you can use a nonselective product like Glyphosel Pro taking care to avoid contact with the tree/roots themselves.
