Pesticides and Snakes?

[Jim Smith]

I'm with Rattlehead on this one. In my younger days, my wife and I lived in a condo and they had pest control come out to spray. We were assured that it would be no problem as these people were "professionals". At them time, we had several large aquariums full of expensive, difficult to find fish (I was in the tropical fish import export business at that time) and within two days every fish in every aquarium was dead. My complaints fell on deaf ears, but I learned a lesson. Now when if have pest control in our home, my man-cave is strictly off limits. They are not allowed in the room with my snakes even to just look as I am concerned about their clothing etc. being contaminated. You may call me over protective, I call it experienced. Just my two cents worth...
