A member asked:
26 weeks pregnant. can i use raid ant baits to keep ants out of bathroom? i am not spraying anything, just the ant traps. would that hurt baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Its fine: Its probably better to use these than the spray. If you're really that concerned though just have someone else handle the traps, use gloves or just wash your hands well after moving or placing them.
