tent fumigation question

9 years ago

I just had our house tent fumigated.
I forgot to bag a cupboard-full of paper plates and disposable utensils. My friends say I should throw them out since they've been exposed to the poison.
What do you think?

And when you asked the fumigator, you know, those folks that pumped you house full of gas and issued the restriction notice, there response was?

Why would you even consider saving a "cupboard-full of paper plates and disposable utensils", and take the chance of poisoning someone? Barring the fact that you do not wish to dispose of several dollars worth of disposable eating utensils and plates, the fumigator is the only one who knows as we have no idea what he chemicals he used!
