16 wk pregnant. exterminator put advion (indoxacarb) roach bait in kitchen cabinet doors. removed all food. still worried if it can affect unborn baby?

No: I would not directly eat the Roach killer and wash your hands after touching the areas treated. Other than that remember it is more important to rid your living area of roaches.
