Friday afterschool (around 5:00) my dad had prayed a bug bomb in out kitchen and had left the cookie uncovered when he sprayed. I went home and ate 1 cookie that was the only one that was only semi-uncovered. Will I be okay or should I go see a doctor? I feel fine and everything but I would just like to make sure.

Since she didn't I would assume the stuff is probably fairly safe and your mom might have just been trying to scare you.
Either way if the amount you injested was going to cause complications I think you'd probably have known it by now, so you should be safe. Regardless, I suggest checking up on the bottle/container of the stuff for further information on how dangerous the stuff is as well as what it recommends incase of human consumption since this information is usually on the cans. If it says to seek medical advice then calling your family doctor to make sure you'll be okay will not really do any harm, just be to be on the safe side. :] [ ammo's advice column | Ask ammo A Question ]

Because just being exposed to herbicides, insecticides, or other pesticides can increase risk for Parkinson's disease. [ dropkickCathyy's advice column | Ask dropkickCathyy A Question ]
