pumpkin grew with a cavity under.With a flashlight I can see there is some scaring/cantaloping inside and would like to blow some sulfur on these areas but I'm not sure how to go about it.I plan to put a fan blowing in it but would appreciate any advice.

Could you use something like an oral medicine syringe like you use with little kids? Maybe with some plastic tubing attached if you need a longer reach? I was thinking of using something similar on my pumpkin's stem split.

I bend thin aluminium into a V shape then fill it with powder, I use fish tank air tubing to blow the powder into the hole

Great ideas! I thought I was good just trying to keep the mice from having a reception hall and then realized more to fret about.
