Hot Shot Flying Insect Strips (cabin)

I've been using these for years in an extremely "well ventilated" (see - unfinished) shack that I camp in. I recently upgraded to a much more sealed tuff shed. the wasps were still getting in here in spring and trying to set up shop. the instructions on these say don't use in places that are occupied for more than 4 hours. I always take them out and let it ventilated for a minute before I hang out. but this weekend I made a trip out to the camp and had some VERY noticeable muscle tremors in my arm (something that's never happened that I'm aware of). They are basically gone now and I had no other symptoms. No idea if it was related but I'm a bit more concerned about these now. Also worried about the chemicals soaking into exposed bedding. I believe the active ingredient is Dichlorvos. Anyhow just curious if anyone has experience with these or any advice in a situation like this. haven't found anything that works nearly as well. thanks

I have never used this product and frankly, didn’t know they still made this kind of thing. I used to see them advertised as a child.
If you are concerned, you could always call a poison control center or visit a neurologist.
