Organic Gardening and Lyme

Hi I have a few quick questions about lyme. My son and I have been avoiding any kind of chemicals and have done everything all natural for about 6 months now. Every year we always plant our own garden of string beans, tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, ect.... We always have great results, never have usede any chemicals. This year I bought 4 yards of top soil, and for some reason my husbands decides to put and mix in lyme #5 in it, he says it kills the bugs and insects naturally, I am versy sceptical about this, and my heart dropped when I saw him putting that all out. Am I over reacting, or are my concern right? My son and I have lots of allergies and I was told to avoid lyme for both my son and me. Does this go away? Everything I have read about lyme says that it takesw months to completely go through the soil and is recommended to be put in the fall, can you give me any good news? Or were my suspitions right? Will the lyme be in the food it grows? Please, pleaqse advise.

Thank you in advance

Sincerly
