mice in raised bed

Question

A family of mice have invaded my raised bed of baby spinach. Can we still eat the spinach if washed properly?

Answer 1

Yes, if you wash it, it is safe to eat. If you want to be extra sure that it is safe, you can add a drop or two (but no more) of bleach to the water that you will be rinsing the spinach in and this will help fully sanitize any potential pathogens.
