thats a pretty large area of damage. as long as you get it dried up and disinfected it should make it.
moth balls around the pumpkin also keeps rodents away.

It seems that you have better weather over in the US but suffer more threats to your pumpkins. Sorry to hear of the damage. Pumpkin and hog roast?

cover the bottom of the trap with cardboard as they do not like the feel of the mesh, use green apples and frozen margarita mix, the latter came from the trapper that traps at my work.
