Oil in backyard

[system]

Yes it looks almost exactly like that. Thank you so much! Now I just need to figure out if I can plant fruits and veggies near it. I am one relieved momma

It is possible that the rusty looking oil slick that you are describing may be a byproduct of naturally occurring bacterial. (Google “iron bacteria sheen” and see if that looks like what you are seeing).
Of course it is possible that you may have oil contamination onsite. You may want to consult with your states Department of Environmental services for guidance.
