Question from Laura
A few weeks ago I went down to the basement to get garden tools and I was overcome with the chemicals of an ant pesticides that had just been sprayed!. A few days later the rec room (garage) was sprayed. Now, the garage is where I had the things I need to grab in my hasty departures from this house – boots etc. and my boxes of books had been put in the basement (which I had gradually been sunning and sorting.) Are those things redeemable if I air them out? I know this is a guess, but how long before it might be safe to go there? Summer and sunny weather here is very short.
Debra’s Answer
Actually airing and sunning the books would help remove at least some of the pesticides. It’s worth a try.
