Fumigation: are my optics safe?

My humble abode will be fumigated with Vikane. I'm guessing it is to meet the lenders' requirements regarding termites.

To heck with my lungs and beating heart: does this have any possible risk to eyepieces, objective lens, Newtonian mirrors, etc.? Anyone have any experience or knowledge?
Thanks,
Steven

I've never had anything fumigated, but I wouldn't expose my optics to it... What you've got is aerosols in the air that are bound to land on everything.
