Fumigating a house -Effect on coins?

I am going to fumigate (tent) my house. The rare stuff is in the SD box but I wonder if ViKane (sulfuryl chloride) will oxidize coins.
Anyone know?

    Sounds like a chemical with sulfur so it probably would tarnish your coins. Not sure if it would be AT or NT.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

  • NT since the intent was to fumigate them, not tone them.
