I have a question about spraying my apartment for spiders.

Question

I get my apartment sprayed for spiders about twice a month. Now I asked the guy if my son put his hands in the spray while it is still wet can he put his hands in his mouth....would that be ok and he said yes. The only thing that would happen is that his mouth would feel weird but nothing poisonis or anything like that. Now I was reading online about pesticides and the people that spray for spiders that the spray contains a lot of pesticides. Now do you think that the kind that they spay in my apartment contain pesticeds even though the guy said that if my son put it in his mouth that he would be ok?

Answer 1

I agree, I wouldn't even let my child near that stuff! (Even if it was non-toxic to humans) Better safe than sorry!

Answer 2

Why would you let your son around someone spraying a pesticide?  That's just foolish... Also, twice a month don't you think that's a bit over kill... .I live on a wooded lot that has tons of spiders and I spray my own home 2x a yr.  Every 6 months!  

Answer 3

could be fine but find out name of spray he used and call poison control and ask the best thing u can do and if its bad turn him in!
