Hello, after having problems with my buttercup squash I got to reading in to ways to get rid of the bugs, and one suggestion was to plant caster beans in amung them to naturally keep cucumber beetles away. I hadn't heard of caster beans before so I did a search on them to find out what they were used for, and found that they are very poisionous to humans, and also contain ricin.

I see they are used to make oil, but what kind of oil, what is this oil used for?.
thanks in advance!.
