Is It Safe To Inhale Fumes After 2-3 Hours Of Spray During Pregnancy?
Question: Hi, I am 19 weeks pregnant and we have encountered few bed bugs in our room. In order to kill them we had to spray herbal spray with base material kerosene and it has neem oil, cashew oil, eucalyptus oil etc. as described by manufacturer. Is it safe to inhale fumes after 2-3 hours of spray? I have got exposed to the smell for 6-7 times.
Brief Answer:
Its better to stay away from these fumes
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
It is better to stay away from these fumes. It contains abortifacient chemicals like neem oil etc. Let others handle this type of work.
Now that you have already inhaled, its better to take rest for few hours and don't do any exertion.
Hope it helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
