On June 13th caller's father became symptomatic after being exposed to previously treated area. Caller expressed that product had an unpleasant odor and is currently ventilating the home. Father is a past smoker with a smoker's cough and has a history of high cholesterol. He was sent to the emergency room. Our specialist explained that patients who smoke or have underlying respiratory conditions may experience more pronounced symptoms that require medical attention. Caller was instructed to ventilate the area by opening outside doors and windows and to consider adding portable fans until the odor dissipated. Caller was instructed to discard product as it should not have a strong odor.

During time in hospital on June 13th, 2011 caller's father was diagnosed as having had a mini stroke and was still in hospital on June 15th going through more tests and appears to have an aneurism on his brain. Caller is having carpets removed from the house as odor is still strong. Customer service asked her to return product so they could test it but she refused as did not want to send through the mail and wishes to have product tested locally. A stroke is not an expected effect from exposure to the odor of the product.
