Hi
I have been putting insect powder for crawling insects down in the lviign room tonight - get an awful lot of beetle type insects - hvae putit all round edges of room, between carpet edge and skirting board
Stll a lot visible, and wondering how long to wait before hoovering it up? Any advice at all for using it?
Hate having chemicals down but was told to use by my landlord!

Do you have a baby, toddler, young children, pets? If so I would be hoovering as soon as possible. If not, I would leave it down for as long as possible.
Did it suggest anything on the container?0 -
Nothing suggested.
I live alone so nothing else to consider, but I really dislike it myself - dont like chemicals and I have asthma so wanting it up quick as possible but not sure how long to leave. Its pretty exposed as its all round room etc.:j Debt-Free-Wannabe! :jDeclutter/Ebay/Savings0
