Insecticide spray and computer

[Cheffi]

I'm sorry for this question but, is there any problem to use an insecticide spray in the room where is my computer? I mean, if I use this near the PC, it could damage? Not directly in it, but near, like 50cm/1.64ft/19,69in. I know that sound dumb, but these sprays looks really bad for everything.

Thanks for attention.

Put a plastic bag over your tower before you spray, or take it out of the room.

That said, if you are trying to spray for cockroaches, they LOVE warm electronics and unless you check it, they could hide in there while you spray around. I owned my own shop for a while, then moved it to my house and ended up with cockroaches several times. Got a 360 a few times and once a PC that someone brought in and said, it's not working, open it up, out come roaches, PSU or other parts covered in roach crap, and as soon as 1 see 1 come out, home many more made it out in that time.

I don't have cockroach problem, so I don't use that much of spray. Just use for some flyes. Is there any problem use that near.

the only issue with any spray is if the case is top open and lets the water part of the spray inside. any water and power dont mix with electronics. as posted above if you have to spray move the pc or cover it.
