So, as I've mentioned elsewhere a while back, i am going on a two week vacation. I have nobody to look after my spiders and some friends volunteered to take them while i am gone. But i just learned of a twist. On the 18th of this month, an exterminator was there. he does not spray, they said, but puts down a powder. What it was I'm not sure. I do know it is not for roaches, but beyond that, I'm unsure of the purpose, I forgot to ask.They think he may not have placed it in that room, and intend to place my enclosures on a workbench above the floor. I still am concerned. But I've also worried some about leaving them at home for what will amount to 18 days. but this new revelation has me worried. What sort of stuff would be placed in powder form and I wonder what sort of danger it may present. I leave tomorrow, by the way. I know there are measures I can take in order to leave them alone here at home, but not being able to check on them kind of stresses me out. any risk assessments? I can take a large tank to place the enclosures within and the top could be covered, only to be removed when they need to fill or change water lids, if that would help...
