Hi,
Our basement has flooded several times in the past year, and the only solution available to us is for an oil-based sealant to be applied to the entire perimeter (it's a semi-large basement with a concrete floor). The person who will be doing the work says that there is a latex-based product, but it doesn't do as good a job. Living in a watershed, as we do, we have to have the most effective solution -- but I'm worried about our two cats. He told us that the fumes from the oil product will be smelled all through our house, for up to two weeks. Does anyone know if this time period would be harmful to the cats? We're very worried about this, but we are unable to sell the house and move elsewhere. Thanks for any advice.
