I've been planning on tossing a bug bomb into my future arcade... it's an out building and the only place I can store my machines as well so they'll need to be inside with the vapors when I do this.

What should I do to ensure an OK result for the machines? Should I remove the backs to get any bugs inside or should I be a bit more worried and cover them up?

I'm guessing, but the area to be bombed is about 40x40 if that matters.


As a side question, I've also noted some mold on the backs of a couple machines. I'm already doing everything I can to control humidity, but wondering if there's an accepted way to clear that off too without causing damage.

Thanks for any insight on this.

I wouldn't worry about covering them up, it won't harm them. It is flammable so make sure any gas is turned off, wouldn't hurt to kill the power either.

As for the mold, if it is just some surface mold it would just hit it with some bleech water to neutralize it. Always do a test area to make sure it doesnt do any damage.
