I was in a customer's house today and he had an exterminator spraying for ants. The customer and I had to walk out of the room because we started getting dizzy. This exterminator walks out like nothing is wrong. That kind of profession breathing that crap HAS GOT TO BE so unhealthy.

Correct me PLEASE if I am wrong. This guy had on NO mask. just gloves. This has got to be killing him big time no?

Did he wear mirrored glasses and an orange Mack truck hat?

Probably is killing himself. His choice not to wear a respirator. Kinda stoopid though.

He'll have mutant kids too now.

they use that water based stuff now.

they spray and it dries to a fine dust then insects take back to the nest.

I miss the old Can O Death sprays that seemed to kill bugs better.

Still not as crazy as the cabinet guy I used to work with when I was doing drywall.. lacquer gun in one hand, cigarette in the other.

Guy was cool as hell, but mentally deficient. All the painters and cabinet guys were.. too many fumes.
