We have a cockroach problem at home and the pest control wala is coming next week. Im 4 months pregnant and bit worried about the chemicals and smell. Did anyone get it done while pregnant?
I panicked so much when my society did pest control, but I just stayed in a closed room with AC and it was fine. Just stay away from the actual sprayed area.
Honestly, I prefer using camphor or neem oil at home to keep bugs away naturally. But if you must do chemical pest control, please consult your doctor about safe exposure.
If you are getting it done, plan to stay at a relative's place for at least 24 hours. Let your husband handle the coordination so you don't inhale any fumes.
It is better to avoid direct exposure to strong chemicals. Ask the service provider for herbal or organic options, and keep the windows open for hours before entering.
Strong chemicals can sometimes cause breathing issues or reactions. Please ask your doctor first and strictly avoid being in the house during the spray.
