11/16/2021 Caller reports that a pest control operator applied the product in his home 6 days ago. Caller was not home during the application, and returned home after the recommended time frame. He sat in his recliner fully clothed. The next day, caller developed hives on his arms and legs. A few days later, he developed swelling on his feet, ankles, hands, and face. He has been taking an antihistamine, which has helped. Caller mentioned that 7 days before the product was used in his home, he had a flu shot which was against his doctor's recommendation since he had just had a COVID vaccine.
