No one likes critters in their home. But for everyone's safety, if ya gonna use foggers, turn off all heating units, appliances with pilots, etc!!!!!

December 19, 2003 — A family in San Diego blew up their home while trying to rid it of insects.
They set off 19 roach bombs, sparking a chain reaction which ripped apart the 700 square foot house. The explosion was so strong it sent one of the walls into a neighboring home.

No one was injured in the blast, but a pregnant homeowner was taken to the hospital as a precaution.

Firefighters says the family should only have used one insect bomb and they should have turned off a wall heater before setting it off.

700 square foot house?? That's only like 25' x 28', or 35' x 20', one floor only. That's a very small house.....JMJ
