what do you have to take out of a home when you going to have it a full exterminated?

Answer 1

yourself and nothing else while your waiting stock up on cleaning supplies for you kitchen. throw out anything and everything you can.

Answer 2

if you are talking about a fumigation, in which the exterminators place a plastic "tent" over the home, anything that is alive that you want to have survive, food that is not fully sealed flour, cereal, things that are packaged in paper, if in question take it out. if you are just having a general first time clean out/application
remove everything from the kitchen and bath cabinets,
or ask the pest control operator what you should do before treatment, that may be the best way to go.

Answer 3

Every living thing--plants, pets, people...

Here's part of an article I found online about it. The link to the complete article is below. You can ask your exterminating company for their suggestions and research as well online:

How to prepare

A significant part of home preparation is double-bagging (special bags are provided by the company) or removing certain items from the home before treatment. These include foods packaged in plastic bags and cardboard boxes; items where the seal has been broken and items are stored in a resealed container; eggs, fruits and vegetables; opened bottled drinking water; and bags and opened cans of pet food and bird seed.

Experts say a good rule of thumb is, "when in doubt, take it out."

Items that don't need to be bagged or removed include unopened cans; cosmetics, such as lipsticks; unopened soda cans and glass bottles; shampoo, soaps and unopened toothpaste and mouthwash; and unopened bottles of liquor and wine (stored horizontally).

On average, bagging "can take two hours in a household that consists of two people," said Susan Kromer, service manager at Sandwich Isle Termite and Pest Control Inc.

Kema spent two days bagging items throughout her home; a task she said was a lot of work.

"For me it was because I wanted to be sure I got everything," said Kema. "I probably bagged more than I should have because I have a granddaughter, so I bagged her diapers, food and toys."

Answer 4

Check with the pest control contractors, they will tell u exactly what to do. Do not attempt a full extermination unless you know exactly to the letter, what you are doing.

Answer 5

Food stuff in porous containers like cardboard. Toothbrushes and the like. All living beings including fish birds dogs cats etc. When you come back you will need to rewash every kitchen item before using it. It's quite a job. Plan on a whole day to wipe off surfaces and wash all your cooking/eating stuff.

Answer 6

Food in cabinets and pantries. You can leave canned foods as long as you wash the cans when you get back. All of your dishes, clothes, linens will have to be washed if you don't remove them and should be anyway because they could have insect larvae in them.

Answer 7

Wait a minuet, what about the sheets, pillows, furniture you sit on, anything you might handle and then touch your mouth. GOOD GRIEF! People are amazing! cover everything that is open close all drawers etc. That is it!
