Sunday, December 29, 2013

Helpfull Hints - Never spray insecticides near a flame, furnace, lighted stove, or pilot light. Keep insecticide sprays away from children, pets, dishes, foods, and cooking utensils. Avoid contact with the pesticide and don't inhale its fumes.

When fumigating, use only the amount of pesticide required for the job.Change clothes after spraying and store insecticides in a safe place. Never flush insecticides down the toilet, sewer, or drains.

Never smoke while using pesticide, and wash your hands before handling a cigarette afterwards.
As soon as you have used a space spray (bomb), leave the room. Close the room up tightly for at least half an hour, then ventilate.

Handling Insecticides

Do not reuse insecticide containers. Rinse and dispose of them.
Never hang a chemically treated pest strip in a room where people will be present for any length of time, especially the sick, the elderly, or children.
