For the person worried about pesticide dangers: This is a follow-up to Gary H's post. In addition to finding a safe place for them OUT of that apartment, it's critical to clean every bit of residue from the floors. The material used is a LIQUID in a large spray canister and it will be squirted on the floors, especially around kitchen appliances and into crevices between cabinets. Mop the floors several times before allowing your fuzzies back into the area. Since this will probably happen while you are away at work or school, there is probably no way to prevent it. I've followed the sprayer from room to room, wailing loudly that I had no bugs to kill and noting exactly where he was depositing the stuff. The moment he left I'd don rubber gloves and wipe up the liquid, following with a sudzy cleaner and LOTS of rinsing. Throw away everything you use to clean with. The only time I was successful in keeping out the "bug man" was by throwing on a bathrobe when I saw him approach, claiming to be "extremely" ill and coughing on him. Next month he remembered to comment that I seemed recovered! Warm thoughts and protect your fuzzies, Georgia Wood [Posted in FML issue 1587]
