How long does bed bug spray residue last?

Our apartment complex wants to spray for bed bugs. I have birds and my roomates have cats and the office said that the apartment is safe to return to after 3 hours... I don't trust anything they say (from previous experiences), so can someone please help verify this? I don't really want to risk my animals' health so I will probably keep them away a couple hours extra.

    Ask the fumigation company for an MSDS (material safety data sheet) for the chemicals they will be using. By law, they must supply this to you. It will give you all the information you are looking for. Good luck.
