Question: Hello Doctor,
We need an urgent advice. My Wife is 27 weeks pregnant and we used "RAID XXXXXXX Ant and Roach Killer" Spray to kill the cockroaches in the Kitchen and Bathroom. Now our concern is that will it harm my wife or baby in any way. Also, Can she enter the house after 4-5 hours after the spray. She is already out of the house from 2 hours.
The Spray says, it keeps killing roaches for up to 6 months, so can its fumes effect the pregnancy? I attached the picture of the spray we used.

Hello Doctor,

Thanks for the advice. Just little confused with your statement "There will be harm to the mother or the baby". Do you mean to say that "There WILL NOT be harm to the mother or the baby but just ventilate the house well?

Thanks & Regards,
XXXX

Hello Doctor,

Thanks for the advice. It helped a lot. I have one last question. We had done pest control last year as well for 2 days on September 27th and 28th. We sprayed complete 2 bottles of the same spray. As my wife was not pregnant at that time and due to less knowledge on the precautions, we used this spray in night and didn't evacuate the room and Kitchen. Next day we cleaned up the area where we cut vegetables. However, we have not washed the cabinets but just let it dry and kept the food items inside after a day. My wife became pregnant within 3 Months of this activity on Dec 26th. My concern is that could there have been any harm to thebaby at that time considering the residual effect remains for 6 Months and we kept the food items inside cabinet within a day without washing them. As of now, she is in her 28th week of pregnancy and her ultrasound looks normal except for little extra fluid in one of the kidney of baby for which doctor mentioned it will become normal in next few weeks.
