Do you use pesticides in your home?

Poll question: Do you use pesticides in your home?

For the most part, we don't use them. I don't like bugs, so we try to keep the house as clean as we can to discourage them coming. For the most part this has not been a problem. There were a couple of times in Florida when we had very bad infestations and had to fumigate, but overall, we avoid their use as their residue is harmful and we do have kids.

But now we are living temporarily with the father-in-law until our house is built and he insists on spraying bug spray all the time, all over the place. He sees one roach, and he is filling the room with a cloud of noxious spray, when if it was us, we'd just hit it with a shoe.

So how about you?
