Hi

Our landlords are scheduled to get a wood termite treatment done inside our premises. Apparently, localized, drill-and-inject method will be used to treat all permanent wooden installations inside house.

Is such treatment safe for a 14 weeks pregnant mother? or Should it be completely avoided? or Will it be good enough for her to stay out of house for 4-5 days?

Thanks Reshma replied. Hi dear please do not trouble your wife as now she needs more rest and good environment so if these all things will happen then it would be very difficult to see for her and at the same time even you will have a problem to do all such things at one time. Ranjana replied. Hello dear this is really confusing as how can you allow the landlord to do such work at the home and why is he doing such nonsense at this point of time is he not aware about your wife, i am sure he must be aware about it then please inform him not to do such things. Raju replied. Hey bro if you really care for your wife and really want that all should end well and at the same time you should be blessed with a healthy child then you should not go for the same and it is advice sable to not do this for at least a year or so. Rajesh replied. Hi bro according to me you should not worry at all as this is not a big deal and it would not harm your wife in any way as its very simple work and no issues at all and also there is no such bad smell as in your wife will not face any problem in this for sure. Shreeja replied. Hi ashish if possible and if the landlord is good then please tell him not to go ahead with this as it can be a big problem and should avoid such things at this point of time, please take good care of your wife as she needs your caring to the fullest. Seema replied. Hello dear according to me you should not worry at all as this is not a big issue and can be dealt with it only one thing you need to take care is that you need to take your wife out on the day when this pest control is happening as that day she cannot sit in the house. Shikha replied. Hello ashish if you are really looking this to happen then please take your wife to some other place as she is more important and you should take more care at this point of time, please do not ignore these things as they are very important and need to be clear on this. Sujata replied. Hello ashish according to me there is no issue but then your is your wife ok with the same as the smell is a bit issue and she will have to bear the same for atleast four to five days after it is done, if she is fine then it is completely good. Suman replied. Bad idea please do not allow this to happen or else it would be a big mess for you because the smell is very irritating and at the same time it can cause a big problem so please do not allow such things rest is your wish and your decision. All the best dear. Aditi replied. Hi dear if i would be in your place i would have not allowed the landlord to do this because now is not the time to do such things as lot of care has to be taken and why should you shift your wife to some other place cant the landlord see that see is pregnant and that too in the 14 month. Anushree replied. Hi dear please do not allow such things as your wife needs good air to breadth or else if the landlord is not understanding then please shift your wife to some other place for a week or so because you cannot keep your wife in this condition in the house with the pest control happening. Anu replied. Hello dear according to me you should not go for this at the time because it can be dangerous for your wife as well as for your kid as well as lot of care needs to be taken and that pesticides are very dangerous so please be very sure if you are allowing this to happen. Anaida replied. Hello Ashish this is really a bad idea of doing such things at this moment cant you ask your landlord to postpone this if possible as it is you guys are staying there and if the condition is not that bad and can be avoidable so why not getting to do so. Anita replied. Oh dear this is really good to see that your landlord is doing such things in the house and it should be done every year ideally, but in your case i would recommend you to please stay away from this as it can be dangerous for your health and for the kid as well. Roma replied. May be he is purposely doing that. May be he wants you out of the house. so that he can steal away some cash or other things from your house. Radha replied. Congratulations you must have a baby by now. And similar thing happened to me last year. but my husband didnt take that risk so we moved to my mom's house. Ramesh replied. I guess it is too late for me to answer. But let me tell you that it is not safe for pregnant women to inhale the odor of such things. So better to stay out.
