BP Safety in apartment setting - community insect spraying

I realize this isn't the normal introductory first post but I live on the edge. I've been a lurker for sometime and have two juveniles BPs in a rack setup. Next week our community management is hiring a contractor to spray the perimeter of each building and each interior unit. Should I be concerned with the spraying and my BPs? Any precautions to take for this event? Obviously they won't be spraying objects directly but more concerned with fumes. Any thoughts?

I wouldn't be too worried. if you can be there at the time of the spaying I would just keep an eye on whats going on and see if they can skip the areas right around your snakes. maybe even take them outside while they are spraying. All in all I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just make sure they don't get any on them.

Hi, I work for a pest control company. Obviously practices will vary from company to company, but due to federal regulations, we all use the same chemicals ....

The spray they will be using is human and pet "friendly". I say friendly, because obviously these are chemicals and you can't say that any chemical is safe if it's meant to kill bugs. :-)

The only trouble you should run into is if your snake comes into direct contact with the sprayed chemicals within the first 2-3 hours after application, depending on how well-ventilated your apartment is. After that, the spray should have dried. The company will likely just spray around the door frame to the hall outside your apartment as well as along any walls that touch the outside.

You can always request from the person who sprays that they give you a sheet detailing the chemicals they're using and any precautions you may need to take--this is the law. They can't refuse to give this to you; it should always be on hand with them.

But again, your snake should be fine. The benefits of spraying (and not dusting) chemicals is the negligible amount of fumes. Just make sure to not let your snake come into direct contact with the areas they spray for a few hours afterwards.

When i had a company do mine for spiders and so on last season, I told them to stay away from the section snakes were in and they did. If you tell them to stay away, they will.
