Ask the Orkin Man

When doing a fumigation, do the fumes bug-killing airborne poison harm any items inside the residence?

Wednesday, June 24, 2009

Question: Orkin Man, when doing a fumigation, do the fumes bug-killing
airborne poison harm any items inside the residence? My landlady is
having a garage shed fumigated and I am unsure if I need to remove
some any of the items from the shed, like clothing, bikes,
chemicals.

 

ANSWER   Yes, there are a few materials that can be damaged by fumigant, but it also depends on the actual fumigant used.   It would be advisable to contact the pest control company that is doing the fumigation and ask if any articles should be removed.
