Hello everyone,
I hope my title isn't too misleading - NO this is not a recipe thread for a specialty beer made with bug spray . Rather, I wanted to see if any of you fine homebrewers out there have found yourself in the predicament I now find myself in.
Basically, we're getting our house sprayed for roaches. Not fumigated - there's no tent involved, just an exterminator going around spraying certian parts of the house where the buggies may be hanging around.
Unfortunately, although we haven't seen any roaches in our basement/ my homebrewery this year, it's getting sprayed just in case.
Naturally, I moved almost all of my homebrewing stuff into a room that wouldn't be sprayed. All I left in the basement were a few cases of homebrew, basically capped bottles in 24-pack boxes with the cardboard flaps closed.
Of course in my infinite paranoia I'm worried that some small amount of bugspray may have dripped onto the boxes, and possibly onto the bottles themselves. Would a solid rinse of each bottle take care of this, or even be necessary? Has anyone ever had to deal with something like this?
Thanks.
