However, there are certain things you need to follow after the pest control is done:
- Avoid Touching Any Surface
It is quite possible that the chemical residues may have remained on the surfaces after the pest control. Though you may not see these, but the chemicals are too strong that you can actually smell these. Hence, most of the pest control professionals instruct their customers to avoid touching surface areas of any room in which pest control is done.
- Do Not Clean
Immediately cleaning the house soon after the pest control is not a good idea at all! There are residues of chemicals that still work to keep away the noticed pests. The smell of chemicals keeps the flies and mosquitoes away for quite some time longer. Cleaning will ruin the entire plan as you may also erase all the sprayed chemicals.
- Throw Away Any Exposed Food
If, by any chance, you have left open food in the room which was targeted for pest control, then you must immediately throw such food. Do not even think twice as you may suffer from toxicity in body upon the consumption of such food.
Food absorbs chemicals pretty easily and this situation is definitely fatal if it gets ingested in your body through such exposed food.
- Wash Your Bed Sheets or Curtains
Bed sheets and curtains are things that are regularly touched. Now, if you can smell your bed sheets or home curtains of the toxic chemicals, you must immediately remove them and put them for a strong wash.
Certain types of chemicals on bed sheets can cause skin and other allergies. These allergies can get chronic within a short duration of time upon using the same sprayed bed sheets or curtains.
- Wash Your Pets’ Utensils
Pets are more than children to quite a few people these days. If you are one of them and really care about your pets’ lives, you must throw away all the remaining from your pets’ utensils and clean them thoroughly with warm and soapy water. This action will help you remove the tough residues of sprayed chemicals during pest control.
- Clean All Your Electronic Devices
When chemicals are sprayed, there are stronger chances of them to be on any of your electrical devices. Before you switch on any of your device, it is advisable that you clean the electronic surface with a wet cloth. This will also prevent any of the chemicals to get inside the device and destroy its functioning.
- Do Not Throw Any Pest Bait
When you are cleaning your house or property, it would be advisable that you consult your pest control professional about any pest bait been placed across any of the corners. If, unknowingly, the baits are washed off during property cleaning, the pest control services wouldn’t prove as successful as you wanted these to be.
- Clean All Your Accessories
Hairclips, bands, cosmetics and/or any other accessory, if left out during the pest control, must be washed immediately before using it. If you wear any of your exposed accessories, there are chances that you might spread the toxic chemical anywhere with your touch and/or can also ingest it unknowingly.
- Avoid Getting Kids or Pets Immediately
Kids and pets are vulnerable to any kind of toxicity. If you bring them home immediately after the pest control is done, you might expose them to high toxicity that can lead to fatal conditions. A good Exterminator in Seattle and from places around can be of good help as regard the instructions are concerned.
